I have gotten myself into a fairly miserable situation. I bought a Frisco brass caboose, with the en-accurate ladder tops, only thing is, one of the roof walks is at least a scale foot off center. Thinking about removing the roof walks and ladders altogether. I have 250 watt soldering station but. What kind of soldering paste did they use? What do I need to get that would be compatable. Silver solder isn't working. Any help or advise is welcomed.
Thanks Karl, Thanks for your input, you have done a great job of explaining the obvious. My question was and still is; What was the early Oriental brass soldier make up, or what can be used to repair same? I am asking that of folks that have actually worked on early Oriental brass, ( ie, cabooses, locomotives, cars ect.) Don Wirth you still out there?
