Also make sure you are tugging hard enough. If you can get to arm shaking level while tugging, then it is ready for competition.

My last crimping hint is to buy a good crimper. The one that comes in the kit is functional, but it's harder to make a crimp that passes the tug test. something like Mcmaster #69555K62 is 10 times better than something like #7007K92.

@Al, Are wire ferrules (7950K28) in the terminal blocks allowed? I don't see anything in the rules one way or the other.

you have to pull it that hard? would it be easier to use electrical tape because we don't even have a crimping tool yet. also @al thanks that was a really helpful answer
