Here's the rundown of my problem, I am recabling a pair of headphones for my friend, the headphones involve a Y-Split with one cord going to each cup, and I did it the wrong way by cutting the cable so that there is 1 long cable coming from the jack, and two short cables coming from each cup, there are 3 seperate wires (I'm using Mogami 4 wire cable, but only using 3 wires.) 
 
I don't have enough cable to redo it the proper way which involves just taking off an enormous piece of insulation and braiding it to each cup without any cutting, so my only real choice is to figure out some way to clamp all 3 wires together at the solder joint so that the cord doesn't break when you tug on it.
 
Any ideas? I can take pictures if I have to.
