Default Re: what silver-solder to buy and where?

I've been welding and brazing for 30+ years. I would use a 60% silver with flux. 60% silver flows real easy. The trick is not to over heat the part and drive the flux out/away. Always apply the silver/solder on the opposite side from the heat. The silver/solder will draw toward the heat. When you see the silver/solder at the heat side your done. Different thickness of parts makes it a little more difficult to heat evenly. There are some heat crayon you can help you with the tempurature control.
