So the whole busbar design is evolving slowly with Jehu's design as one of the earlier solder jobs so to speak.
Altho there were many others feel free to add to this list
List of parts used to make this project:
Laptop Batterieshttp://j35.us/Ebay-Laptop-Battery-Lot
18650 Holdershttp://j35.us/18650-spacer-clips
Copper buss barshttp://j35.us/1NGpBo4
Brass stripshttp://j35.us/Small-Brass-Strips
Cell Fuse wirehttp://j35.us/1k-Ohm-resistor
Nickel stripshttp://j35.us/1PRIreE
My version is below and even that has evolved some what.
Then there is Mike who released his first video the other day with his process.

Or even no busbars

15 seconds of fame did soldered nickle strip

Damian Rene - does epic packs, however more E-Bike related. Spot welded Nickle Strip
Link to whole channel rather than a specific one definitelyup there with Jehu's videos when I first started.

Then - THEN there is what I consider the current standard

UK DIY Powerwall - one of the earliest running setups I've seen even before mine !

This list will grow as I get time but any newbies out there - above video is how to do it in my opinion !
Feel free to add to this list links or photos of your busbar designs it'll definitely help others moving forward with these projects..
AND Make sure it's not just the good.. you learn faster from mistakes in my opinion

Design flaw using copper to bind the busbars together was the issue with Rohan's packs. Simply fixed by using zipties.
