    Hi! Tony /all Your varied list of crimpers hasn't included for the type recommended by my friend Ivor Phillips which really applies to crimping very small wires and MINIATURE barrel and pins needed for "D" sub connectors which are used to connect directly into, say, the rear of a GPS unit or Auto Pilot (in my case). I recommend, in the quest of eliminating the practice of soldering which causes wire embrittlement, that you take a look at www.lasaero.com and find in their catalogue E300-015 Crimper, D-sub closed barrel .( go to the Electrical section and select TOOLS) Having had a number of solder wire connections fail I suggest that new builds involved with panel wiring should seriously attempt to eliminate all soldering. I don't know it's origin but I do know of a similar crimper (EX Concord Maintenance Engineer) which actually has a variable torque setting embodied in it. In the catalogue there is also listed the small tool for releasing the barrel sockets and pins from the rear of the "D" Sub plugs and sockets. Happy Days !!!!!!!!!!!!!"Friggin" wiring !!!!!

    Subject: Denmark suspends ..Schengen Agreement....? likley effects
    on European fliers\? HI! All Sorry if any of you who dislike my political persuasions are offended but I do feel that this item could spell problems for our European Private Flying and hopefully someone reading this will be able to discuss the implications on European Europa Tour groups? I am imagining the return Journey from say Swedish EAA Rally needing to land in (or overfly) Denmark en-route home. Unless suspending means only "partial suspension"? GO TO :- http://gatesofvienna.blogspot.com/2011/05/denmark-suspends-schengen-agreemen t.html#more The EU and our esteemed Coalition Government are clearly "cocking a deaf ear" to Italy's plight (not withstanding the appalling situation in Greece) ref. being inundated by refugees from the North Africa Region which enables our borders to be under threat since any such migration to the UK will considered as being from "another EU country" I am including a couple of Danish friends in this message which may prompt some "on the spot" comment with regards to their forth coming Rally? Regards Bob Harrison

Soldering isn't bad if you do it properly. Even new Boeing airplanes rely on thousands of solder connections. Key is that you properly support the wire. Solder is brittle and will break if a wire vibrates constantly. So, bundle up the wires and do not let them "hang" on the solder joints. Frans

    Shoe Gloo is fantastic, but I hear you Frans. That stuff just locks EVERYTHING together forever. I will however move to crimps for other than my MAC trim servo that I am doing now, with the very fine wires Reg Tony Renshaw On 12/05/2011, at 7:21 PM, Frans Veldman <frans@privatepilots.nl> wrote: > > On 05/12/2011 09:56 AM, Bob Harrison wrote: >> Having had a number of solder wire connections fail I suggest that new >> builds involved with panel wiring should seriously attempt to eliminate all >> soldering. > > Soldering isn't bad if you do it properly.

    FWIW you can get COLD solder which should solve this issue -----Original Message----- From: owner-europa-list-server@matronics.com [mailto:owner-europa-list-server@matronics.com] On Behalf Of Bob Harrison Sent: Thursday, May 12, 2011 5:57 PM Subject: RE: Europa-List: Crimping Wires ......Link Hi!
