Is there any chance of a brazed repair on this -
(The crack is along the side of the milled flat silver bit in the middle)
The job has got knocked and hence the fracture. So the parts should mate together perfectly, and, once dismantled, as probably just about small enough to fit in my kitchen oven (in secret).
I'm wondering about the feasibility of heating the whole job, and then flowing in a braze using capillary. This doesn't seem like it would be so hard, assuming the temperature range required was within the capabilities of a domestic oven.
I've never done brazing, but plenty of soft soldering using capillary action. I'm guessing it's pretty similar?
