thanks for your vid. now i can connect wires neatly, safely and consistently. now al i need are the proper tols and a lot of diferent blade conectors or terminals and new wires. wow i have a lot of work to do and it wil kep me busy for a long time. i hav to change and rewire d conections on most of my electronic devices. our local automotive electricians her don't use those tools for crimping. they just use pliers to crimp and its ugly and most of the time unsafe cuz most of d crimps are loose.

Well...I guess I'm retarded cuz I sure as hell can't get a crimp to look like that

@payableonde44ep If you click on any YouTube video while it's playing, then hold down your space bar, the video will play is 'slow motion'. I know you've probably figured out how to use a crimper by now, but someone else may have the same question as you.

could you please slow down while you use the single terminal crimp tool?

im confusing about the high-end and the low-end part. i just need to see the tool

thank you in advance!!
