how to make your own 1/0 terminals

[SHOnOFF 10+ year member]

I see a lot of people with problems with their 1/0 and 2/0 terminals all the time so I thought I'd share how I make my own and they are great for any application.

First get some 1/2" copper pipe and cut some 1 3/4" pieces X how many terminals you want to make. solder your wire into one end. next, hammer or flatten the other end in a vice. now simply drill a hole in the side you flattened to the desired size pole you are are attaching to, round off the square edges so it can fit anywhere and PRESTO instant custom and CHEAP terminals. Hope this helps anyone out wanting to save a buck or two.

Maybe a sticky?

i get fancy with mine and round the front edge with tin snips or bolt cutters and a file. these work great.

alot of kids i do cars for dont have the extra cash for the terminals so i use this method.
