Hi Dick,
Am I correct in saying that all 3 wire jobs were solder joints? Wanna try my twist method? I don't like heat on my wires at all, not to disparage those that like it. I just feel that if it was good enough to do when the bikes were made and it still works now, why change. Not to say I don't know of at least a couple wires that broke using my method but I know that when those break it's because the wire is tensioned too much and as it folds, it gets thinner and can snap. But having done literally several thousands of tires with this method, I can say it works pretty well. And I have a neat video showing how to install it. No heat required.
