[RE-wrenches] crimper lead needed

[William Miller]

Bob:

I did some quick research using the Inter-web.  The crimper for the 
Multi-contact crimps is basically a glorified Molex crimp tool.  Molex 
crimpers are a dime a dozen for the smaller gauges, but less common for #10 
and #12.  You might find an alternative supplier but you need the type of 
crimper that folds the "wings" over.

If you look on E-bay, one may come up, and there is one linked below for a 
bit less money.

Here are a few handy links.

What is needed is a pin extraction tool.  Anyone find one?
