clean the two sections good with wire brush---then coat each surface with silversolder flux--clamp the pieces together---heat with acetylene torch till it is hot enough to melt silver solder and draw it into the fluxed area.--- you can clamp a piece of thin ribbon style silver solder between the two pieces if you have that style, but I have only used the sticks or wire type silversolder.

no, sorry I don't have video, but maybe someone else can show you one.--- brazing is different than silversoldering, because silversolder will be sucked into a fluxed area when melting and cause a very strong joint. ---I use brazing rods and acetylene torch to add strength to joints by adding metal to the open fluxed areas like types of welders do. ---there are excellent welders on here that can explain it much better than I can.
