using wire nuts instead of soldering for pickups replacement

soldering is easy until you try to pick up the iron like its a pencil. Still have that scar 30 years after the fact...
I soldered the pickups today
all went well except for when I picked up the Soldering iron like a pencil.......
Really I cant believe I just did that.

wont be playing bass for a few days
not pizzicato anyway.

Other than that the job went well
Thanks everyone for your advice
