[Hallicrafters] Off-subject / soldering

[Paul]

How much room do you have to pull the cable thru? I've done similar cable pulls but not in a Bonanza, by using quality crimp butt connectors. Increases the overall diameter of the two cables a small amount at the crimp point, but it creates a strong joint. Then just pop the crimp when the cable is thru.

I know this is off subject but I know there are flyers and machinist on the forum.
I need to replace the step retract cable on my Bonanza and would like to use the in-place cable to pull the new cable from the nose gear to the aft fuselage.  I need to butt solder the new-to-old cable but am having trouble getting silver solder to flow.  Does anyone have a suggestion.  Thanks.
