I enjoy all of your videos. But you asked, so I will criticize: i would have wiped off the joint before applying heat, then started the heat on the pipe at the lower joint, just for a short while, then evenly apply heat around the bottom joint first, then run the flame up to the second pipe and joint as I touch the bottom joint with much less solder than you used, then do the same with the next joint. I would finish-up by letting it cool a bit, then wipe the joint off.
I would focus the heat on the fitting rather than the pipe,and I would apply that heat to the bottom side of fitting. You're not heating everything,rather you are heating the direction you want to solder to travel. Careful not to apply too much heat. But what you did should work just fine.
is the purpose of this video to show your progress in learning plumbing or for the benefit of the viewers to learn a little something? I would assume that explaining the pros and cons to each might be better than that reply.
If it’s clean and fluxed , Tap the solder every few seconds, to get it sucked in. To hot just burns off the flux.

And heat the fitting first, then top joint, bottom joint, both with silver solder not soft solder,
Use silver solder instead,
I was going to make the same video today! 🤣
GF recorded it as I was soldering up a Valve.
@@LearnPlumbing Nice!
I would use pex
Tub Spout... Pex?

Read a deamn book😂 you hold the heat UNDER the solder joint and you do one connection at a time 😂😂😂this is a soup kitcken mess
Are you even watching the right video?
