A method of establishing coil dimensional stability by thermally stress relieving the tungsten filament prior to mounting in a lamp. The filament is manipulated into the desired position by coiling it first around a primary mandrel, then a retractable secondary mandrel. After the secondary mandrel is removed, the filament is held in place by a pair of electrical contacts. A current is passed through the primary coil, which heats the tungsten and causes it to recrystallize. The recrystallization provides the desired dimensional stability.

An adaptor is attached to a second pipe, and then placed in a clamping device designed to access the main pipe and clamp the adaptor thereto through the small hole. Electricity is passed through the adaptor, thereby softening the plastic so that this softening and the pressure of the clamp secures the adaptor to the main pipe. The main pipe is then pierced by the adaptor's tapping tee.
