For all you DIY-ers and general handymen and woman, Have you seen something like this before?
I think its freakin awesome and I cant believe I have not seen this before.
Never seen them, good luck finding them in SA.
BigClive did a review and found that the solder didnt penetrate to the core.
I'll stick with the traditional method thanks.
As @blujeenz says they don't penetrate very well. Big Clive says they could be useful in an emergency or in a low current application.

Very interesting, Thanks for the video. Like he said, For thicker gauge wire they might not work but from smaller gauge and lower current wires they work.
Me being a perfectionist I like the simplicity and look of it. When joining wires like this there is almost always they "Floppiness" in the wire.
But either way as long as the wires stick and it works I am a happy man...

It has been time to replace the old wendyhouse I have not been using as a garden tool shed for about a decade so this is what finally replaced it. Really chuffed with the outcome.

Thanks guys, been Youtubing boatbuilders (Acorn to Arabella and Salt and Tar) and was really itching to push my DIY skills to the next level. I am an impatient person so forcing myself to slow down and just focusing on the current little task has really been a growth experience to me.

Not a hint of chlorine anywhere in sight.
About time to go back to work after first time ever four weeks leave. Good retirement practice, tough at this rate my pension seems a little inadequate...

Nope, just a line I cut with a knife to make removing sections easier.Is it that stick on tile look crap?
The only thing that would work is a solvent like petrol, thinners etc. Something that will break the bonds. Or you can try this,Struggling to peel off the kitchen lino prior to tiling, tried heatgun, paint scrapers, sharpened spade etc.
