Re: Polycord welding

The past several years I have used both a jig and without a jig. The jig I used was a simple piece of wood with two clamping latches on it that held the to ends tight. Then I melted the ends with a lighter or soldering iron and pushed them together. After that year, I have just held them together with two pairs of pliers then heated up the ends and pushed together. Note: second method requires two people.
