Prevent solder from flowing into areas you don’t want it to — with this studio tip from @kaypeajewelry. “If you use yellow ochre to control solder flow on tricky joins, this is a clever way to make it a lot easier to work with. Kristin had a large container of Rio Grande No-Flo but rarely used it because it can be messy and inconvenient to apply. She experimented with filling a paint touch up pen with a yellow ochre mix using a syringe and the result works surprisingly well. The pen keeps the mixture contained, allows for precise application, and the chamber is designed to be airtight so the contents do not dry out quickly. Simple idea that makes a common soldering technique much cleaner and easier to use at the bench.” Thank you so much for letting me share this and if you want to find the exact paint pen
