i bought a tool that you hit with a hammer. its what the shops around here use. but you can always just solder it on.

4 gauge, i use one of these http://cgi.ebay.com/Hammer-On-Welding-Cable-Lug-Crimper-NEW-Low-Ship_W0QQitemZ290125587004QQihZ019QQcategoryZ67042QQssPageNameZWDVWQQrdZ1QQcmdZViewItem

for 2 to 1/0 i solder the ring on the cable but i guess you could use the hammer crimper too

actually thats the same on i got, from the same guy. It works pretty good. I think i did 2 gauge in it one time, but most of my bigger wire I solder.
