I can't get over how good you are at explaining things. I could listen to you all day!!
This has to be the most complete, concise and understandable explanation of the art and science of soldering I've ever encountered. Thank you for being an excellent instructor.
Thank you!
This gentleman has absolutely the best videos on the internet. There are people who try to explain procedures and then there are instructors, like this man who you can tell by his way of explaining things, has years of experience. Also his shop is ALWAYS clean and organized. He is the Modeler Supreme
Hey Paul, This is a great video ! No filler & worthless small talk, just right to the point . Great job.
I’m planning on adding soldering, to my skill set, so I’ve been researching it, off and on, for the past few months. After seeing this video, I learned that 99.9% of modelers, who are teaching soldering, have no idea how to properly solder. Thank you 🙏
Who are the 41 dimwits giving this video a thumbs down? Our world is screwed up.
Keep up the great work Sir. You are a true craftsman.
Maybe a niche topic for most people, but one of the best instructional videos I've seen on this Y'Tube.
I've been soldering since I was seven years old, and I'm a Class 3 Certified Solderer... and I STILL Learn something new!
Thanks Paul! :D

Fantastic video. narration, sound quality with no distracting background music and high quality content performed by a master of his craft. Thanks for this profesional video.
Brilliant tips - attempting my first fuselage tubular frame, this was a huge help!
golden advice on brass, tin, and lead
Wow, thanks! Great tutorial. This opened my eyes to another technique I can add to model building. I also build guitar effect pedals, so I have all the necessary solder equipment already. Best/most basic tip I can give is heat the part, not the solder! I’ve never used flux though, as it’s included in the solder, where I live anyway.
That was the most useful soldering tutorial I've ever watched. Thank you!
Paul, Fabulous learning Video!!!!
Previously I have been an B-767.B-727, B737 Airline captain, Airline instructor pilot, FAA Airline Examiner for same, Licensed aircraft mechanic A&P, helped start A&P school for the state college, licensed Supper Late Model NASCAR driver, fabricator & builder including the engine and private 80x40 race/machine shop/toy shop. Now finishing up my General Contracting license. WATCHING YOUR FABULOUS VIDIEOS......I NOW NEED TO QUIET MODEL BUILDING. I can NEVER build a scale model anywhere near as well as you can. I want to, but your skills are so far advanced from my own that I feel I could never come close.

Richard .... Sounds like you have more than enough under your belt ... One of the things I've learned over the years is that model making shouldn't be a competition or a race ... in fact ... it's a lesson that I've only recently relearned and it will be the subject of a video that I hope to have up before the year is out.
Well thank you Doc. Once again your a real Artist/professional scale model builder and good instructor. I would bet you could make a fine Experimental aircraft builder...nice of you to take the time to respond.

Some of the best soldering I have ever seen. An excellent tutorial.
trying to teach my son soldering techniques over the internet as he lives with his mother just sent him a link to this as its a superb resource, kristan you need to tell me when you read this so i know you watched it
This is such a high quality video! Great pacing, graphics, variety of tips and approaches covered in a relatively short video. Thank you.
Best modeling channel on TH-cam!
Great video. I have watched a bunch of other soldering tutorials but couldn't find anyone doing quite what I wanted; it was either jewellery or electronics. Thanks mate, this was really helpful.
Thanks man..!
god bless u ..
4 better world.. setting the knowledge free ..is the answer,
i belieave..
if the art wid tehcnic is the top of the grace, transmission will save us from cold and dark world ..
So sad, when a man leave this world with his knowledge taken from another, with him without sharing it with new generations ..
so thanks a lot !! ..
Thank you for this excellent soldering video.
Thank you, Sir, for a true basic understanding of soldering.
Thank You for his thoughtful clear explanation.
Great video. Thanks for taking the time to put this together. I feel better armed at soldering now.
I've been soldering photo etched parts for many years and the tips you share in this video will surely make the process even more pleasant.
Thank you.
How cOOl! You'r the bomb, and i have totaly no experience to know saying this. I see this for the first time. But you have make things pretty clear to me. Thanks for the awerness, and how some things work.
Note: when i saw the comments, i 'm convinced that what i saw was a Profesional.
You're a great Teacher sir!. Very logical and easy to follow.
This video helped me! Thank you. Perfect!
Thank you for the tip about the wet towels! I'm definitely going to try that. I've been needed to revisit the iron as I torch for just about everything. I totally forgot about tinning, seems like a really useful technique.
Thanks so much. This really helped with my project for school.
A clean job, a delight to behold thank you this slice of life. Most excellent and uncommon, again thank you.
Great work! I saw Fred play this many times. Thanks
Amazing tutorial Paul, the only missing part was Soldering Paste. Extremely useful and easy to flow.
Im scratch building some stuff for an HO scale brass train and this was suuuper helpful!
Excellent video! Thank you!
Wow. Well made and thoroughly explained. Great video.
What a fantastic video....thanks Paul!
Mr. Paul Budzak, I deeply thank you for the perfect way to explain something as important as this in brass welding. After much research, I came to the conclusion that there should be nothing more concise than this explanation throughout the web.
I also have to say that the calm and cadence of your verbal explanations are inextricable. I
’m going to start to work on a big size brass model RC boat and your information is priceless.
For all this, once again thank you for democratizing your knowledge. Please continue to do this great job.

Thank you Dr. Budzik for another excellent video. I learned to solder back in shop class, then used it in plumbing and electronic work, but never really considered the science.
Excellent video and explanations, I do a lot of soldering on photo etch and custom made small brass parts. I wish I had found this video before I shelled out for a resistance soldering rig.
Thank you very much, this has given me the confidence to try a few projects that I have been putting off.
That was an incredible tutorial thank you for sharing.👏
agree, excellent tutorial, thank you very much.
Very precise information. Thank you. Your skill is inspiring.
Thank you very much. Very good tips.
Thank you. Very useful tips.
Thank god I found this channel!! Wooho
Thank you! Very Thanks for this video!
Excellent video. thank you.
I cannot overstate how much I have learned from Mr. Budzik over the past 10 years or so. Virtually all of his techniques, when I have adopted them, have become my "go-to" in whatever area they apply to. Quite honestly, he is much more meticulous and more of a perfectionist than I am, and I do not have access to all of the tools he does, but it is still immeasurably valuable to know the "best" way to do things.
I always found soldering to be quite frustrating prior to watching this video (I know I saw it somewhere before February 2018), and often I simply failed in my attempts. Now it is a breeze.
I guess what I am trying to say: Thank you for sharing your techniques Mr. Budzik!
Thank you so much John!
Excellent video sir! Thanks for sharing.
Thank you, Paul.
THANK YOU FOR THIS ....I DO SOLDER QUITE A BIT BUT IT ALWAYS HELPS TO LEARN FROM A PROFESSIONAL THANKS AGAIN MAN SUBSCRIBED AND BELL RUNG
Very useful and helpful. Thanks very much!
Great video indeed. Thanks for sharing.
Excellent video!
Thank you so much for sharing 🙏
Fantastic video :) Greetings from Norway ,Stefan
Good Video! Clear, concise explanations supported by good video and photos. Nicely done.
Thank you, Tom.
This is a very good video. Thanks!
Lovely clean work
That was a really good video and helped tremendously
Inspiring. Thank you.
Thank you so much Mr. Budzik this is by far the best explanation and instruction for someone who has no experience in soldering. I honestly feel like I now can attempt this and further my model building ability. You have been a endless wealth of knowledge for me for over 30 years thank you so much good sir!
Thank you!
Great video! Thanks
Hats-off! Master.
Well done. The video was very helpful.
Very informative. Thank you.
Good , clear basic advice. You must have heat-proof fingers ! Many modellers like to use lower melting-point solders, e.g 145deg C (300deg F) so that they don't burn their fingers.
Very informative. I've done a lot of electronics work, but model soldering is new. I just picked up the Langley CV-1 photo etch. Amazingly small stuff, lots of joints. Wish me luck.
Excellent tutorial.
best soldering instructional
Thank you this was very helpful
very helpful and informative thanks
Excellent video.
I really appreciate your video. You are very knowledgeable and give us the details we need to know. Also your video production is wonderful. I am in the film world I I understand what it takes to make a video like this so I’m great full for your time and effort. Both of these worlds are for creatives and it’s cool for me to see them come together.
Thank you, Carlos!
Woa what a fantastic video. I have done a lot of silver soldering repairing locks and old keys but I am repairing a very large albatross bird sculpture and need to scale things up. The videos I have watched are generally lacking in specifics. That flux looks excellent, thick and it appears to have metal particles in it perhaps? I've been sold a watery liquid flux which doesn't protect the surface from oxidising for very long so I have brought a roisin gel which at least doesn't seem to disappear so fast. This was helpful thank you.
Great lessons!
Best job in the world
very good video. thank you.
That's awesome info thanks...
Excellent video
great vid . thanks!
Great introduction to soldering! I’m just starting to try detailing my kits, and want to be able to create new parts from wire, rod, and brass sheet. Any chance of an introductory video on tools and techniques to make your own small metal parts?
What a fantastic video!! I subscribed immediately.
Awesome video thanks
Thank you!
Excellent, many thanks
First time to your channel - I can’t thank you enough for the value you have added to TH-cam with this content. You have answered so many question I have about making custom parts for my scale RC Rock Crawler. Do you have a video specific to brazing or soldering small aluminum parts? Anyway I appreciate the thought and knowledge you just added to my skill set arsenal. Your channel is a welcome addition to what I call “TH-cam University” it’s amazing what one can learn on TH-cam - Cheers
Brilliant info 👌 👌 thanks 💯
just great!
Just found your channel and Subscribed. Very nice work
Hi. I just found your channel. I just love how your explain and show the process. Is there any way to darken the solder color? I want to patine the brass but the solder is still very visible in areas where I do not have access to clean up properly. Is there any chemical that can darken the color of the solder as well so it will blend better with antiqued brass? I am using a 50/50 tin lead solder. But I can change it if necessarily Thank you.
Just starting out thank you
Great video! I would really like to see more on F1 project. Please give me a link to that project. Thank you
thank you soooo much
What flux syringe are you using? Is it pre-filled? I'm trying to follow your formula for some brass trains I want to build.
nice work
Wow, how did you cut the sheet brass so precise!
Nicely explained.
How can I solder two soda can pieces?
