"Hey everybody Don Golden with Expert Village and back with you on copper piping. Here are he three pieces that we are going to put together. I've got the flux and we've got our torch ready to go, dry fitted them. We know that everything is fitted together and the flux helps that slide on there very nicely and you want to push them in as far as they will go just like so. Now we are ready to solder this. It is going to take a little heat and a little solder but we are going to make a perfect joint by the time this is done. It will be watertight, it will be hardened and it will last for at least 150 years if you do it properly."
