I think you might find you're thinking of brazing. Bronzing is coating
something with bronze. Brazing is a form of soldering.

of methods of welding that can be used on thin material without blowing
holes in it.

?? sorry, wasn't intended. I've had one repaired (by MIG- but it wasn't the

my old neighbour and I repaired mine a few times, with a welder, although he
was what id deem an expert at welding, unlike me..
