I started writing my thoughts about a recent thread on wire, solder and crimps, and before I knew it I was taking photos and writing a whole silly webpage about soldering crimps and some of the cool "tricks" I've figured out over the years.

Here's the URL
http://www.heartmagic.com/crimps.html

Remember, a lot of it's probably NOT politically correct, but it is MY way and it works well for me....

Cheers

The linemans pliers type crimper you like is available at Home Depot for under ten dollars. It is a little shorter than the some but very high quality and works well with a two handed squeeze.

Thanks Gary. I've got tons of material on electrical design (which I've never done, so it's needed), but very little on the practical/mechanical aspects of wiring. This is good stuff!
