Wire part making?

Howdy,

Care to share your method for glueing or soldering wire to form parts?

Dap Rapid Fuse with an accelerator has been my method.

I tried using Coleman’s Cold Heat but within minutes the new AA batteries
became much too hot.

Wire to paper or resin, I use CA. If its several wire pieces - if there's no stress might go with CA otherwise I get the soldering gun out.

basically what whulsey said. i use bsi thin and thick ca for most paper parts. for styrene - thin tamiya or similar. for soldering, i find using solder paste easier and less messy. i apply rosin before soldering,
