"I'm Mark Kooy here with Expert Village and we are going to be talking about wire sculpture and braising techniques and tools. Okay we are with our wire sculpture today and we are going to be using braising technique for sticking it together and the first rod that I am showing you is a brass uncoated braising rod. I like to use this rod in combination with flux and we will talk about flux here in a little bit because it has a much more versatile application than the same rod but with the white coating on here is flux so you can use coating rod also but you have to be a little more specific with what you are using it on. Sometimes with a different variety of metals you want to use a little different flux. We will talk about that in a minute. "
