Someone I know wraps copper foil around solid wire, and after soldering 
trims it and pulls out the wire.  But in this case as well as the tube 
one, I don't like that there is no mechanical support, just the solder; 
compare that to the rivets.

The only version of this in the US I found is what I quoted at $80.  I 
didn't find any US distributor that has the exact UK parts, let alone 
the price.
