Actually, how do you heatshrink them and make them look nice?
Every video I've ever seen keeps showing how to connect a SINGLE wire. I want to connect wires with multiple insulated wires inside them.
I'm not sure how to heatshrink them. Obviously the inner wires need to be insulated from each other. Its hard to get a heatshrink tube over them unless you strip a lot of the outer wire insulation to give a place for the heatshrink tube to rest while you solder (and hope it doesn't start to shrink from the heat next to it) and then slide it down to cover the joint.
I've tried this and had to cut a lot of the outer insulation away. So then I'm left with a long section of wire without outer insulation.
So what is the best way to do this?
