Can somebody post a photo from a soldered join?

<p>I routinely solder two pieces of flex together to make one 6-foot piece. What works for me is to solder the <strong>bottom </strong>(upside down, on a workbench, obviously). That way I can heat one rail and the joiner, applying a bit of solder so it is drawn into the joint; then the other rail and joiner; then a very small amount on the outside of the joiner. Makes a strong joint without excess solder anywhere. </p>
