<div dir="auto">Hi Sam,</div><div dir="auto"><br></div><div dir="auto">I purchased the Milwaukee Force Logic crimper a few years ago and it\u2019s been worth every penny. The cutting attachment doesn\u2019t work so well on fine stranded, but the crimper attachment has worked flawlessly. I use it almost every day. </div><div dir="auto"><br></div><div dir="auto"><div><a href="https://www.milwaukeetool.com/Products/2679-600C">https://www.milwaukeetool.com/Products/2679-600C</a></div><br></div><div dir="auto">-Chris </div><div><br><div class="gmail_quote"><div dir="ltr" class="gmail_attr">On Tue, Oct 22, 2024 at 2:49\u202fPM Sam Haraldson via RE-wrenches <<a href="mailto:re-wrenches@lists.re-wrenches.org">re-wrenches@lists.re-wrenches.org</a>> wrote:<br></div><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="margin:0 0 0 .8ex;border-left:1px #ccc solid;padding-left:1ex"><div dir="ltr">Wrenches,<div><br></div><div>We are embarking on a project in November that has enough battery cable and terminal crimps to justify researching and buying power tools specific to the task.
