At this point, the adapted wire can be anchored to the cast so that it can be soldered to the band. We use compound or sticky wax to heat tack the wire to the cast; and then we follow-up by pouring a thin mix of fast-set stone to the wire and the cast as the final anchorage step. It is important to keep both the sticky wax and fast-set stone clear of the areas of the solder joints, so that those materials do not interfere with the joints. Once the wire is anchored to the cast, check to make sure that its placement is satisfactory. At this point, the wire is soldered to the band using either an electric soldering technique or a flame soldering technique.
