Crimp connections
For those of you that make your own cables do you use anything on the wire before you crimp?

if i want to make sure a crimp connection will last i crimp the lug on and then solder the lug.
some have a hole just in front the crimp part the ones that do not i drill a small hole in front of the crimp and heat the lug with a small butane torch wile feeding solder into the hole till it is full.
i have cables i made back in the 80's that are still in use today that work and look as good as the day i made them.
