Hi

A *hot* iron will take the insulation off of the wire. Some of the  
new "controlled temperature" irons don't get hot enough to do the  
trick on some types of wire.

Crazy glue works fine, just be *very* sure you get everything lined  
up right if you are going to use it. You want the core to be dead  
straight when you are done.
