The Harley dealership wants $1,700 to run wires through my new handlebars and solder the connections. So not including the wire, solder and solder gun, this video saved me about $1,670!! Thanks.

Excellent tutorial. I've never seen anyone solder by heating the wire first and letting it do all of the work. But it makes so much sense.

I'm a 54 yr old Aussie and not too proud to say that I'm here 'learning how to solder', having never done so before. Thanks for the tips and your time. This Interweb and KZread are really just "the ants pants", eh? I, honestly would have put the solder to the tip of the Iron, not the wire or metal that I wish to join together. This helped heaps. Cheers !!

Thank you for posting this video! My soldering was a bit rusty so I watched your video. I managed to fix a broken wire on my daily Sears multi-meter. It is inexpensive but works fine again now. Also, even more helpful is your discussion of your Weller Iron. I found a new one on Ebay for $53 USD shipped... so seeing that you used it I immediately purchased it as it is a great deal. Thanks again, please keep posting your projects they are great!

You did well. What I find is coating the copper wire with a flux paste (a "tinning flux") greatly helps in heat transfer and wetting as well as preventing copper oxides from forming. The solder flows almost instantaneously all over the fluxed joint (capillary action). That way you aren't applying as much heat to the join and your coating/insulation will not melt.

Clear and concise. Thank you.

Learning how to wire a power bus for my Lionel post-war 027 layout. The power drops to the bus are soldered to the underside of the tubular track every 10' or so. Thanks!

Thanks for the video... really helpful...

two small things - with the first example, if you do use heat shrink tubing, usually you need to already have it on one of the wires or else you'll be outta luck. also, if you don't have wire strippers handy, you can melt the sheath of the wire off with just a little application of flame. slightly melt it and it tugs right off.

Thanks so much for this video! I have soldered copper tubing and do pretty well at that, but in terms of wiring I wasn't applying the principal of heating the wire joint (as you would heat the tubing joint to draw in the solder). I made a big mess of the electronics of a nice electric guitar ... Now I think I can redo it much better!

A lot of people I know who are just getting into soldering and electronics say that soldering is a huge pain in the ass. I found the biggest reason is because they're using little 5 dollar radioshack irons. They work for really basic projects and things like that but if you're going to do anything more advanced they're useless. I highly recommend getting a good quality soldering station. It makes all the difference in the world.

Thanks for this tutorial. Very easy to follow
