Wouldn’t a lot of joints look like this if we took the time to cut a cross section? I mean its solid all the through which makes the seal. I would be curious to take a sample of 100 plumbers solder jobs and see how much this actually happens. My guess it’s in all work.
My problem is I use too much solder. Richard From TOH insists that you only need a little bit to flow around the pipe. I’ve always used map gas and only takes a few seconds to heat up.
