Default Re: Glad Hands

Jim, I know I saw some for the wedico but I can't find them right now..

Solder might not be the best to use for air lines. I have to admit i have not tried this yet but I figured that what I was going to try was taking some red and blue wire, appropriate size of course. Wind it around something as you did and then using a heat gun get it nice and hot. You want all the shield around the wire nice and hot but not melting. then just leave it to cool by it's self while still wrapped around what ever it is you wrapped it around.

In my mind that would take the shields resistance to keep its original shape, and change it so that it would want to stay coiled. thus making it have the spring effect and want to return to the coiled state..

Just a thought. I will try and find the glad hands I saw and post a link when i find them.

-Mike
