that's not pricey, and that crimper !sucks! (I used to work at ratshack) ... go to homedepot and buy their Telemaster crimper. I used one of those for almost two years without fail. They're around $45 if I remember right, and they as spidey said, they're not the best, but they'll do OK.

I pull a lot of cable so having a quality stripper and crimper is a necessity. I've been using one of these for several years now and it was worth every penny.

No joke. That thing is awesome. I thought I had a problem with mine when I first got it, it would fully crimp down a -45 end.

Turned out I hadn't been putting it in all the way... :eek: An excellent tool though.
