  What is the difference between soldering and welding?
  
When soldering a ring you use SOLDER.  Solder is an alloy designed to flow at a lower temperature then the ring.  When welding a ring you use a FILLER MATERIAL.  Filler Material is the same material as the ring and you must hammer it thin (0.2mm) so it flows easily.
