That sounds worth-while on simple joints Carlton, but I'd have to grow a third hand to hold the solder! I almost always have my tweezers busy. But yes.... the hard silver solder in particular has a habit of flooding if I let there be any excess.
Do you not find that your solder gets horribly oxidised and in need of pickling? My 9ct solder especially looks like rusty old binding wire after it get hot! Is there a little trick, like dipping the hot solder in the pickle pot straight afterwards?
