    Bus bars

    Guys I need some ideas on how to make parallel bus bars out of deans or bullet connectors. Id like to go 3 into 1. With deans it would be 3 mail reduced into a single female. With bullets id say 4mm to a single 5mm. I know who its doen but some suggestions would be great. It's always nice to have options and diffrent ideas.
    Thanks

    One way to do it is using bullets. I would get two pieces of solid copper wire that just fits in the bullets, about 1 long each. Might have to sand it to size.

    I would solder them together making an X, then solder on the bullets and insulate it with heat shrink.

    Add a connector to something like this.

        here is what I did for mine, all 6mm connectors. On the single wire end I put on wire inside the connector and soldered the second to the outside of the connector. So far it has worked great.
