Hello Kev,
I like the idea of benefiting form the different melting temperatures of the solder, smart thinking.
Take care.

Well plan A looks as if it will work just fine, so much for detailed drawings and SketchUp etc: best way is to just sit down and think about it! .see you soon .

Hi Kev, interesting solution and very well executed. I wondered if you would get a bit of distortion when you first explained your method, didn't look to be much at all so a bonus. Cheers, Jon

[BensWorkshop]

Very interesting approach there, I was wondering what you were doing until it became very clear. Looking forward to seeing the progress.

[MarkMcCluney]

Great work on the soldering Kev, it looks to me like you might have done that before. And a very enjoyable video; I like the relaxed pace, it makes it informative and easy to watch. Thanks for all your efforts mate.
