Lead vs. Silver solder

surprise, surprise, I've had the same problem in the past trying to solder #50 or so copper wire.

Hey, at least you can see it. Me, pfffft.

As a process development, I had to solder a 3/4 by 1/2 inch copper braid comprised of thousands of low gauge copper wires. to three flat superconducting cables.. I fluxed it, dipped it into a tin/silver solder pot, and the pot consumed about half the braid in a second or so.

whoa..no pre-tinning here...
