Re: h.d. wire crimperts
I use a swagging tool to crimp my wires. It's used for crimping ends on cables for overhead doors. Should be able to get one from a overhead door supply warehouse. Looks like a big pair of bolt cutters. Don't take a lot of pressure to crimp them!

Re: h.d. wire crimperts
I use the crimpers that you use for crimping sparkplug wires for doing cable ends and you can get them at an autozone.

Re: h.d. wire crimperts
They make a ratchiting crimper but they are pricey, have a set in shop at work, was going to buy a set but to rich for my blood.
