I'm looking for some site that explains with pics what is needed and how to heat shrink a soldered spot in order to make it more resistent. I added 2 wires for the D buttons in a JAMMA harness with plain soldering and it's very inestable.

Also some info about crimping connectors would be welcome, although in Bob Roberts page there's some.

Thanks in advance.

I crimp most everything. Adding a button is really easy by just crimping what you need. There are pictures in my project pages showing the tools, and as you said Bob Roberts has a how to on crimping.
