Oh, yeah, real practical, a "solder" made of indium and gallium.

indium ~ $800/kg
gallium ~ $300/kg

lead ~ $0.73/lb
tin  ~ $6/lb

I have a carbon apoxy that works great with glass(mirrors) and metals of every type.It can be drilled.It is not flexable,but does not weather. Impossible to break. TreBert
