I must say it is very time consuming to make your own cables, but now at least we have the ability to fix up the 20 or so broken old cables that are just sitting around. Our "Economy Crimping Tool" is pretty basic and you still have to "clean-up" the crimp with some needle nose pliers each time. Does anyone have experience with the "Deluxe Crimping Tool"?
