Just been watching a jointing video, (yes I know how sad) the Jointer (a Russian) was building up a lead solder finish to the Joint, can't recall what the correct term is for this sort of skill, can anyone put me out of my misery?
 
PM admin or even Dan and ask them to look at the logs.
they here. easy for him to look at.

I think you're thinking of wiping a joint, where solder is applied to the work, built up to a thick layer that is then shaped while it is semi-fluid. E.g. you wipe a joint between the sheath of PILC and a brass jointing cone. A.k.a plumbing the joint.

Swaging is a cold process of hammering / forging / pressing a part using a die / swage / mandrel to change its shape.

Yes of right course, I was mixing copper pipe jointing, not cable jointing, should have realised my error.
