[TCML] DUMB QUESTION OF THE DAY



I have an application in which I'd like to be able to SOFT SOLDER a short piece of 0.050" tungsten wire to the rim of a dime. This is for a spark gap which will never get warm but where I need to prevent erosion of the silver such as I'm getting now. I've tried a Google search and found hints, but only hints, that it may be possible. I could copper plate the stuff I think but not sure and also not sure if that would make it solderable. I could also, with a lot of work, tin it with silver solder but that's by far the method of last resort.

Might also be possible to spot weld it? Doesn't matter, don't have the equipment.

Thanks,

Ed
