Dan; That is the type of criming tool that we use at work, and we live by our electrical repairs. If we have a bad connection the customer is not satisfied and that means no business. After crimping solder the connection. You only need a little solder, pull the solder towards the heat with the wire in the middle. Never put the tip right on the wire. Finish up with shrink tube. It drives me nuts when I see old electrical work that relied on a twist of tape, no wonder they were having trouble. Solder is your friend, embrace the solder..... _______________________________________________ AMC-list mailing list AMC-list@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx http://list.amc-list.com/listinfo.cgi/amc-list-amc-list.com
