<< Hi Graham! A standard industry  point of reference is that any process that
 joins two metals with a filler metal without melting  and is below 800 F is
 termed soldering. A process that joins two metals with a filler metal
 without melting and is above 800 F is termed brazing. There are processes
 such as joining two aluminum sheets together with a filler metal (without
 melting the two Al sheets) at temperatures around 1100 F.  Unless the
 flexprint is really thermally tough I imagine the customer meant a
 soldering process instead of a brazing process.  Have fun.

There's also another kinda' braising...the kind that I like to do to my beef
short-ribs, throw in a little quartered red potatoes, sliced carrots and
celery, and some little pearl onions and let go for about 45 minutes to an
hour at about 375 to 400 F....
Mmmmmmmm, YUMMY!  (Sorry Graham, I just hadda...GRIN)
