    The next time you want to remove excess solder: Use a torch to lightly soften up the solder and the wipe the solder off with a cloth pipe cleaner. Keep going over it repeatedly until you've removed all the excess solder.

      That's a good technique if you're skilled and have just a bit of cleanup, but in this instance he had so much clean up that the brass would absorb and hold so much heat he could risk a sliding braise joint and throw everything out of whack. I doubt he has the fine touch with a torch to manage the heat properly to soften up only the bits of solder he wants to...
      Although, it is a very useful tip to remember for when you need to clean up just a bit of solder! I once tried wrapping steel wool around a soldering iron with wire and scrubbing it away like that! Haha it DID NOT WORK. This technique would've helped a lot!

    fun piece of info for anyone wanting to use brass in a build but having trouble finding brass of any good length around them or cheap enough, you can use carbon steel and bend it to the desired shape, then heat it up and hit it with a brass wire wheel, it will melt the brass to the surface of the steel and "plate" it with brass, giving you a much easier way to find big enough pieces. I have used this on weird shapes for knife handles before

    What a marvelous genius you are mate. I was choosing the other day materials for building a mini itx as the market doesn't satisfy my expectations of the mini itx department, I was going to build a titanium case but wasn't a great conductor , so the plan was to buy aluminium, but i don't have the tools requiere to do a perfect job so I ended up with plywood. Less cost and I have worked before with it. Plywood is great material for molding things as you please , better than any metal when you don't have the tools. Perhaps I would in the future build a metal case and taking some ideas from this video. Great !!
