Copper Polishing or Copper Sweating

I love, love, love to polish copper. I know, I am a strange being. But wiping away all that grime just makes my day. Turns out Colin has a thing for copper too, no polishing but sweating. "Sweating?" you ask. Well, sweating is when you solder copper pipes together to create hot water and colder water piping from your brand new hot water heater to the rest of your abode.
