Hi all
I have taken some photos and tried to upload them to a public album
(hopefully not done this for ages). They show the fittings and
particularly the brass fitting I need to connect the sheath to.
Hopefully this works

I have tried some searching but can only find examples of soldering
the fitting to the wire rather than the sheath to the fitting.Â* They
seemed to use "silver solder" which I assume is not the same as
plumbing solder
Thanks
Lee.
Very helpful. "Silver soldering" is done at red heat, I think even "soft
soldering" (i.e. plumbing / electrical) will deform the plastic however
careful you are. I would go for epoxy: abrade and degrease the parts
first. Someone has already suggested this.

Silver soldreing is done at a bit less than red heat, but yes, its way
above 'soft solder'
