I'm much more comfortable with the cutting, filing, things I can take my time over but there's not really much choice than to leap right in with the torch and brazing. I am moderately to highly terrified of it but I'm hoping it gets easier with practise.
After doing that first joint my initial thoughts were: if you are considering a custom frame but after seeing this thread, think "hey I can just do it myself at home with a little practise", don't. Pay a framebuilder.
YMMV
Its a #3 as well dude

Looking good, not afraid to leap right in!
What size tip are you using on the torch on the above photos? The central cone of the flame seems to be larger than what I'm using (with a N°3).
