It's a lot like soldering, even looks like a puddle of lead if you get too much.

Popeye, you would be correct in that we did not put the fireplace outside, LOL. But I think our "warm" weather will be coming to a close. Some white stuff might be here Sunday night. Good part is it's dry and warm in the shop.

I found a handy tool a while back. Like Harley's big clamp, I have some of the Dewalt big trigger clamps. But was walking through Home Depot and found the cutest little clamp. I bought on because it was so small compared to the big ones. The official name, DEWALT DWHT83148 4.5 Inch Small Trigger Clamp. Well I found it so handy and useful I went back and bought 6 more.
I tried to link a picture but you can search on Amazon for one.

Bill, walking thru HD or Lowes this time of year can be detrimental to your pocketbook! LOL. Always lots of stuff you can't live without!
