These are my jigs, solid rods of aluminium with 2 different sized holes in each. I would heat the jig/rod, then place a piece of solder in the rod, heat some more the put the wire in the tube, let if firm, then heat the rod again just a bit with some pressure to get the solder to release from the rod but not pull the wire out of the solder...

My wife was out in the garage earlier and I told her I needed to find some more drums, she looked around and said, "Honey, I think you maybe need to finish the ones that are out here already." Then she said, "Well, how about no more kits, just snares." :) She also said we're going to be on that show Hoarders, except it wont be trash, just drums everywhere, little paths through the drums...LOL

1st I just want to commend you on a job well done! Fantastic job!!

Anything is possible if the desire is there huh?

My girlfriend says the same thing about me being on that Hoarders show. I buy drums explaining to her that they are worth more that I paid, but I never sell anything!! lol
