Heater Wiring



I always use stainless steel hardware and stainless locking nuts on all of my builds. I like stuff heavy duty rock and roll just like Spinal Tap.




Here is another angle.




I unwound some of he twisted wire and soldered it to the tube sockets.




I turned the drill very slowly. I have a tendency to twist my heaters too tight so I just took my time.




I am now waiting for new turret board material so I figured I would twist up the heater wires for the tube sockets. I taped together two 18 gauge pieces of PTFE wire and inserted it in the end of my trusty Dewalt cordless drill. I get the PTFE wire from a place called Powerwerx mainly because the name is so kick ass and the wire rules. 18 Gauge is heavier than most people would use but hey, I'm a heavy dude.
