Hi How to solder electrical connections !
  
==Some things you'll need and good addition to your tool box==
+
I'm reaching out today to tell you about Melio, a simple payments solution that helps small businesses like yours save time and money and increase cash flow.
  
* A good Controlled output soldering station
+
What is Melio? It's a super easy-to-use accounts payable tool with an intuitive dashboard where you can pay all your business invoices and receive payments from other businesses.
* De-solder / soldering tools & Braid
+
* About a pound of 60/40 solder, (I use 24 gauge for harness making, and it works well for circuit board assembly also, a good mid~Sized gauge)
+
* Some resin, A Pin vise, hemostats, small Brass (about the size of a toothbrush) Acid brush, a Dental pick is also handy,
+
* Heat gun
+
* A GOOD set of automatic strippers with a depth gauge
+
* Various sizes and COLOR heat shrink tubing (cheaper in bulk..)
+
* a GOOD tie Wrap gun , Various Tie wraps.
+
* Bulk (5000 at a time) Ring terminals in the 3 popular sizes, that are NOT insulated
+
  
==The procedure==
+
Here's why Melio has been great for me:
* Strip the wire to fit the terminal sleeve, with about a 1/4 in showing,
+
* Without twisting the stripped end, Tin it until a good silver coat appears.
+
* Then, Tin the terminal, with just enough solder to flow and leave a silver coat INSIDE the sleeve.
+
* Next, I get two pieces of shrink tubing, Black for the first insulator, and a selected color for the top to slide over the black, about a 1/4 inch SHORTER than the bottom..cut and slide them on the wire.
+
* Next I solder the wire to the ring terminal, "Wicking " the solder up into the terminal sleeve, until it is filled, smooth, and shiny silver.
+
* Next I crimp the terminal
+
* Finally, I slide the black (longer tubing) flush with the end of the terminal sleeve on the ring end, and shrink it (keeping the wire straight until it cools, unless a pre ~bent angle is required)
+
* When cool, I slide the colored tubing (lets say, red) over the first, and flush with the ring end..and shrink it down. Net result is you have a terminal with a red marker and about a 1/4 trailer behind it.Looks totally pro...lasts FOREVER..(Never had any fail YET..  )
+
  
* To extend a wire , just strip a good length from both wires, make a good Mechanical connection by placing the stripped ends parallel to each other, wrap one clockwise and the other counterclockwise..Solder until you have a good flow and coverage and silver (not gray) appearance, then install shrink tubing.
+
