Re: Speedo Cable Leak (Housing)

[Tom Watters <tomwatters@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

I could use Map/Aceteline and try brazing silver solder in it, or just a 
60/40 tin/lead with a propane torch.  Because not being done for 
strength, will try the solder tonight.

I guess if the lead wont stick, I'll try the hotter braze.
