Soft solders,
A term applied to lead-tin alloys used in soldering. The upper limit of the melting range is about 300ºC, and many alloys melt at about 130-180ºC. Lead-tin solders are now being replaced by other low melting point alloys due to the toxicity of lead.

Solder,
Is a term to describe alloys that can be used to join two pieces of metal. These alloys have lower melting points than the metal, or metals, they are joining, and wet them. Typical solders are classified as soft or hard solders depending on their melting points.

Soldering,
Soldering is a process by which two metal parts can be joined together by filling the joint with a molten metal, this metal known as a solder has a lower melting point then the two metal parts being joint together.

Sour water,
To every gallon of water, add one gill vitriol; stir thoroughly. Stuff steeped in this should be covered with the liquor, otherwise it will rot.
Water in which bran has been made to grow sour. 24 bushels of bran are put in a tub, about 10 hogsheads of nearly boiling water is poured into it; acid fermentation soon begins, and in 25 hours it is ready to use.
Throw some handful of bran into hot water and let it stand for 24 hours, or until the water becomes sour, when it is fit for use.

Space,
The visual or actual area within and around shapes and forms. Positive space defines the contents of a shape or form, and is bound by edges or surface. Negative space refers to the "empty" area surrounding a shape or form, and also helps to define the boundaries of a shape or form.
Spindle,
A tool used for spinning thread. The hand spindle consists of a short rod weighted at the lower end with a disc (spindle-whorl). It is either let fall from a height to spin freely or spun with the lower point in a smooth concave receptacle. See also spinning.
