« Last post by Canuck750 on April 18, 2024, 08:45:51 PM »I made up two cable ferrule ends today, I had a length of scrap 10mm diameter brass, turned down to 6.4mm, drilled a 2.7mm through hole, parted off at 7mm, opened up one end of the ferrule to 4mm.
I am not too comfortable soldering cables, it seem the cable needs a lot of heat while the brass gets hot super quick, lots of flux and then solder
I think its a good solder joint?
The 6.4mm ferrule just slides into the 6.5mm opening in the post
and the two cables are finished
now if I could just get the damn head back from the second machine shop I could finish this bike and get to tuning it and final sorting
