I have used butt connectors, solder connections and shrink tubing, but I was at Home Depot the other day and found these, that are a butt connector, shrink tubing and solder connection all in one.

Anyway, I'm on my wife's lap top, which sucks, but I wanted to post some pics of the car I bought last week. It's still in Florida and won't leave until t...

WHATS WRONG WITH THIS PIX
(Preview)
Looks like my work is 'cut' out for me. That pine was 25' tall, good news is it missed the house and other trees. If it would have fallen the other way, in the street, the city would have picked it up.
