Lynn, I looked for your photos, but can't find them. I would like to see your setup. It sounds like I may need to change my setup from some of the comments, good information.



By the way. the ASC thing, I just made it up--- Air Craft Spruce, didn't know it would cause so many comments`

I posted them yesterday, Dec. 5, 2007, Dan...twice, sorry to say. I  

first got a notice from Matronics that they were too big, so I  

reduced them and posted again, only to have the previously mentioned  

email and pictures show up here on the list, and then the reduced  

size ones showed up later...sorry folks for the double posting, but  

when I got the "rejection notice", I posted again. I spoke with  

another list member and he said he saw the two postings, so Dan just  

look for a posting from me yesterday about 9 PM or so.



And about the ACS thing, folks have been using that as an  

abbreviation for Aircraft Spruce for years now. I just never jumped  

on the wagon...call me a rebel.  But really, I'm TRYING to unclench  

my feathers, Mike.

But I'm just a simple caveman lawyer, Mike, and as such I don't know  

about these new-fangled modern contrivances, such as wiktionary, etc.  

My source says "aircraft" is one word (The American Heritage  

Dictionary of the English Language), but I'm willing for the sake of  

the group to think of it as two words and will hereinafter accept ACS  

as the group-accepted acronym for the previously mentioned Aircraft  

Spruce & Specialty Company...wrong as that may be. : )

 Tell your feathers to relax, Lynn.  According to Kiktionary.com  

 <http://en.wiktionary.org/wiki/aircraft>, the term comes from a  

 "craft" that operates in the "air".  "Air + craft" is the listed  

 etymology.

Yes, of course it is, Lynn.  The etymology describes the origins of 

the term, not it's proper spelling or usage.  I just refer to them as 

"Spruce."

Any opinions on brazing or silver soldering the cable to the wire grip for added safety? Seems like it would work.



Lynn, I still could not fond your photos, don't know what the problem is. Could you send them to email address?



Thanks

I'd go with silver solder...it's so much cleaner the way it wicks  

into the (properly prepared) joint. Yes, I'll send the photos to you,  

Dan.
