Re: [FTC]: Encoder cables
Yep, done that. The parts and tool to finish off the ends of those are all available from digikey. Just use care. The pins are small and easy to under/over crimp. Also use caution inserting pins into housings.

The housing is Digikey part number 609-2396.
The pins are part number 609-3620-1.

The inexpensive tool to crimp them is:
Universal Crimp Tool WM9999-ND 33.75/1 63811-100

Best Regards,
