Hi,

I think that Sievert is available in most countries.
For info on fillers/solders and brazing rods this guy has a lot of info,

Hope this helps,

digging around and came across this......

Hiya - digging around for gas burners and came across this ....ebay uk item number 250229210419 . It's a gas and compressed air torch for glass bending.
Don't know if that is a bigger or smaller heat input than needed for brazing, but might be worth chasing up further to find out?

That burners got quite a large head, designed really for soft glass tubing in the chemistry field and neon lights.

The only way to find out if it'll braze is to ask "jepsonbolton" on eBay, he may test it out if you're lucky, he's an experienced glass blower but I'm not to sure on his metal working abilities...
