I would like to try my hand at sweat soldering. What do I need to buy for starters? I am handy but have never done soldering.....kind of a bucket list thing.

Question, what are you trying to get out of your water with the Big Blue?
newbies tend to forget they have a torch in there hand, when you move the heat away from the pipe
look where you are pointing the torch. do not burn the house down.
if you have a 6x6 piece of sheet metal, you can use it as a flame shield
Propane in one hand, solder in the other hand. Will need a videographer or a GoPro camera.got a camera? post a picture of your work
