Hi.

I'm being a bit OCD with my single speed project so I want to get rid of the cable stops. What's the technique for removing them using heat? (I'd prefer not to saw and file). Do I target the actual braze on itself or do I go for the silver/brass directly?

This is a perfect job for a Dremel tool. A cutting disk will slice through the stop in seconds, a stone tip will grind it smooth and flush in a few more. Using a torch requires skill and the right equipment, and in this case, no advantage.

A second for my second favorite tool, Dremel, right after "bigger hammer"
