I tried soldering the brass tube over the all thread... No dice.. must have had some plating on it or something.. I couldn't get solder to stick to that thing to save my life!!! I just used a piece of all thread... It's a very short length anyway... only 5 3/8".

I really like the way the swivel balls came out... My aileron's are slope free now!!! I'd just like a better way of doing it...
