There are some excellent tips here and will have another go using some of them. One thing that I will definitely look at is the silver solder. That sounds like a very good idea. Will post back with results

You can do but soldering with plumbers solder is a good skill to have

Some pics and vids to help you
Thanks for the mention Shaun
Wasn't sure you were still around, how you doing ?
Or just pull the two end feed fittings apart about a couple of mm, then heat and touch of solder and immediately tap the fittings tight together.
But Shaun's idea of soldering through other (open) end of fitting would do also as either method fine because it isn't plumbing
Tried the tapping best but couch it would knock some joins out of line and then burnt fingers happen. The idea to solder through the other end though, sounds great and will try that next.
............. the silver solder..................
Your passion for this project is inspiring
Originally I thought you just fancied doing some soldering but the wife wouldn't let you loose on your house
