Biggest fear

[Kenny Pollock 10+ year member]

most people use a hammer and beat on it to crimp tighter, but i used a a big crimper at a semi truck dealer, the dealer was nice enough to let me use it

I didn't have a table vise for one of the terminals I put on today... so I just hammed and electrical taped it. Should work for now, heh

I Have a hammer style crimping tool I use...They are cheap at welding supply.com you put the uncrimped terminal on the wire and then insert it under the pin, and then beat the pin with a hammer...doent make the prettiest crimps, but electrical tape/heat shrink will fix that //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/tongue.gif.6130eb82179565f6db8d26d6001dcd24.gif
