СпутникиРНSpaceXРоскосмосNASAI have a vintage Sunbeam Radiant Control T-40-1 toaster which has unfortunately suffered from a melted internal wire, probably due to poor insulation leading to a short.
I've purchased a replacement high-temperature wire, but I'm a little stuck on how to actually get the new wire back into contact with the heating element. Sorry if the photo isn't clear, but the end element is the coil at the top of the frame which is fed through an insulator and then immediately into the old wire crimp (or at least I think it's a crimp.)
How do I go about either removing the old crimp or otherwise making room to get the new wire where it needs to be? And then what would I use to secure the splice, would I solder it or use some sort of butt connector? Whatever I use needs to be able to survive the intense heat from being right next to the element.
Am I better off trying to source a replacement coiled nichrome element?

Is this a good question?
