how about a circular drill (similar to drilling a hole for a door handle)?

did you still need to use tape?
Yeh man. Heat shrink is a rubber lookin stuff you can thread the wires through before you wind them together. Once you wind them together (or solder if your tuff :P) you place the heatshrink over the join and then you heat it up with a lighter/match or even a soldering iron. It then shrinks around your join holding it together better and keeps it insulated from the other wires so it can't short and cause an electrical fire or somethin.Quote:
