[TheForge] soldering v brazing v welding (fyi)

[Bruce Freeman]

Of course, the ORIGINAL distinction was that soldering could be done
with a soldering copper.  Brazing was done at temperatures too high to
use a copper to carry the heat.

Aubrey,
In case I didn't give a definitive answer to your question before,
temperature difference, which is admittedly strictly arbitrary, is the
only
line that can be drawn between soldering and brazing anymore.
Everything
that separated the two categories previously is breaking down under
the
onslaught of new products and processes <snip>
