<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>I am going to start soldering connectors for an
electric. What are youall using as heat sinks to keep from damaging the plastic
of the connector. Gotta take a lot of heat to flow properly and get a good joint
with # 13 and # 12 wire.. We used to use steel cases to weld #10 and less wires
with a magnesium/lithium/alloy material you put in, clamped the case, and lit it
off. Really fused everything together. Of course that was back in the 50-60s
era. </FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>I have a crimper for sermos high amp connections
and those are done for the "charging' hook-ups to a RR and power supply.

<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>Found an OLD soldering iron that is about as old as
I am, looks like it will take a good 100 watts to heat up the 1/2in. tip,
so I got a good long term heat source.</FONT></DIV>
