Re: 1/4" copper tubing?

I usually splice extra lengths onto the 50' piece by using a piece of 
solid copper wire (12 awg iirc) to align the two pieces of tubing and 
provide something to solder to.  Sorta like sweating a copper pipe 
connection.  I do seem to have better soldering with a 150watt 
soldering iron (type used to solder sheets of metal together).
