RE: Pinging Mr. Duster

Well, we can debate the benefits a gas-free crimped connection versus a soldered one until the cows return. That debate has been aired on these forums many times in the past. I find myself in the crimp camp. You sound as though you are in the other camp. Likely we'll never convince one another. I kind of keep coming back to the idea of why introduce a third or fourth or fifth type of metal into the equation by using solder?
