I solder barrel conn. myself and heat shrink then skotch kote. I want a clean in line looking connection and totally waterproof otherwise corrosion sets in below the soldered joint.Besides looking for good continuity not pulling ability. My work lasts for the life of the vehicle some of it 20 yrs. plus so it can't be that bad. besides i guess i was never taught the twist method your talking about. Soldering is the best no matter what to keep resistance down. just my H.O. and anouther solution to the problem

It sounds very interesting. Really. At first I invisioned a wire nut kind of twist tie. But I think you are describing a splice similar too a cable splice, the braiding of two ends too continue ones length. Wish there was a way too see this done. Guess mine is the lazy mans way. ha ha...I will have too try and see if I can acomplish this. Sometimes I am like a bear cub with mittens on.. ha ha.Thanks for the explanation.

I will try to see if I can borrow my girl friends video camera tommorrow and take a video, she is being a bit*h and wont let me tonight. When I first started at the shop I worked at I didnt know how to do it like that and got made fun of untill the other guys showed me how.
