Yes. it's a PIA but unless they are doing something unusual, high heat and solder to remove old wires, install new wires or do repairs. I have yet to ever see a crimp version.

that depends how deep the solder and wires go

I have fixed enough hammonds over the years, I can tell you, usual wear and tear and the cables hold up. but once in a while you can have a problem with the connector wiring,
When soldering in new leads I have found it helpful to have the end of the wire stick out of the pin. This ensures that you are heating the wire as well as the pin and the solder then flows between them. Snip off the extra wire and any excess solder when done.
You may already have vices, perhaps look for a vise.scott2000 said:
