What did medieval people use to solder?
MEDIEVAL people soldered with what looks like dreidal that was cast from the same metal (i.e. copper smiths had copper ones) and they generally had an iron bar comming out the flat part, they would be heated to melting temp and then applied to the seams. and these were common and had to be re dressed into a new point quite often. blacksmiths generally never had them because of ferrous work, but copper tin gold and silver smiths all had them in their shops. the gold and silver smiths often re dressed them and cast them themselves. just because of the danger of sending out for a new shipment and having it stolen. these soldering rods were usually dressed by a medival grinding wheel. if your thinking of pre-medieval times before 410 ad( the fall of rome and what was considered the beggining of the dark or medieval ages) soldering was, as far as i know, done with a crucible that had molten metal in it and poured on the 2 items. if your talking about ferrous work (stuff that contained iron) they did whats called forge welding, which was where they heated up the metal in the forge to a little over yellow hot, cleaned the scale and then applied a medieval flux of somesort, then they were re heated to the point of almost melting, and then they took it to the anvil and beat it together. hope it helps- ramsies11

What was the name of King Arthur's sword?
The sword was named Kaletvwlch in medieval Welsh texts (usually modernized as Caledfwlch in modern versions of those texts). In medieval French tales the sword is named Caliburn, later fancied up to Escalibor. Sir Thomas Malory in his Le Morte d'Arthur rendered the name as Excalibur.Because Malory's work was so popular in English, that form of the name is the one which later English authors mostly use. It is also used in some English translations of medieval works where the name is found differently in the source language.Some medieval romances give other minor variations in spelling.According to Geoffrey of Monmouth's Historia Regum Britianniae (the earliest surviving biography of Arthur) the sword Caliburn had been forged in the Island of Avalon but this account tells nothing of how Arthur obtained it. According to the medieval, so-called Vulgate Merlin account, Caliburn was identical to the nameless sword which Arthur pulled from the sword and so became king. According to the medieval, so-called Post-Vulgate Merlin Arthur was given Caliburn after he became king by a lake fay and it is unrelated to the sword in the stone.A version of the Post-Vulgate Merlin occurs in a manuscript named Cambridge Add. 7071 in which material from the Vulgate Merlin is also included and which according identifies Escalibor with the sword in the stone, but later in contradiction identifies it with the sword given to Arthur by the lake fay. Sir Thomas Malory derived the earliest section of his Le Morte d'Arthur from a similar combined account and so gives both contradictory origins for Excalibur with no attempt at an explanation.Excalibur
Did scribes get paid?
Yes and no. Whether a medieval worker was paid depended on the situation. Many serfs worked on manors where they raised all sorts of crops. Instead of paying rent on the land they used, they worked on the fields the lord of the manor owned. In addition to getting use of land and a home, they also got protection from criminals and armies in wartime out of this, but money was not part of deal. People who were not serfs generally worked for pay or for themselves. There were also times when the serfs got paid.
