Practice makes perfect! And you certainly got a lot of practice in on that build!
Point of fact however, with no pressure or temperature concerns in that cascading fountain, silver brazing was not truly required, though it did provide a much stronger finished product than had you used a softer solder to assemble it.
Any way that you slice it, that thing came out Tits!!!
There would have been no strength if it had been soft soldered.
I definitely wouldn't say "NO" strength, just quite a bit less strength than what you achieved with silver brazing!
