Splicing Magnet Wire

I know this has been discussed before, but need details. 
Unfortunately my new 6" coil (producing 7 foot discharges) , blew a 
hole in the secondary wire about 5' up from the bottom. I unrolled 
the wire past the burn, scotchbrighted/exacto knifed the carbon from 
the form. I sanded a beveled edge on the wire, and tinned it. Now I 
want to join this with a new wire to re-wind to the original bottom 
point. My question, is how to hold the 2 pieces of wire in alighnment 
while soldering? This seems very dificult. Not only from a placement 
point of view, but from a standpoint of properly heating the 
junction. As always your helpmis much apreciated
