Hey folks, I was wondering if anyone has experience with soldering stainless steel with silver solder. Is it a doable task?

It works but it can be a bit tricky because it requires a flux specifically designed for stainless steel.

Yes, is correct. It's all about the flux, but generally speaking, it's considerably more difficult than soldering simple copper or brass.
