The copper was joined by brazing the two metals together, using an acetylene torch. Copper is a lot of fun, and forgiving. It has a tendency to become 'work hardened', so needs to be reheated to soften it. If given a chance, you should try it.
Thanks for your compliments!! I'm fairly new at this as well, since 2001... but I'm having lots of fun!!!
