Soldering aluminum guards to a steel ricasso...

[anvilring]

Any chance of that happening? If so, what flux and solder?

 

[Bill DeShivs]

Don't think so.

Google says maybe, but jb weld metal epoxy would be loads easier!

 

[Bill DeShivs]

Pin them.

my guess is you can do it, get a specialised aluminium flux. get everything set up and cleaned, then clean the aluminium again and immediately apply the flux. it's not going to be an easy join

Don't even try unless you like cursing.

Use JB weld and pins for a clean and secure fit.
