armykyle1 Posted November 27, 2011 Author Report Share Posted November 27, 2011 I'm not going to keep a 50 dollar tool that doesn't work properly, I got it since I figured it would be easy to use considering my slight handicap Quote TEAM XS POWERTEAM HEAVY HERTZMy build- http://www.stevemeadedesigns.com/board/topic/194454-e46-bmw-build-pos/#entry2914134youtube- http://www.youtube.com/user/armykyle1big build starting Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
armykyle1 Posted November 27, 2011 Author Report Share Posted November 27, 2011 I don't have a vice I'm trying to justify gettin the mega crimpers but I don't do many installs. I'm on my way to harbor freight right now... The nerve damage in my left ARM/hand makes it extremely difficult to hold a punch safely. Can you squeeze bolt cutters? Cuz if you can't mega crimpers won't work for you either. You would have to have hydraulic or electric. I could brace the bottom ARM and just push done, done it with bolt cutters Quote TEAM XS POWERTEAM HEAVY HERTZMy build- http://www.stevemeadedesigns.com/board/topic/194454-e46-bmw-build-pos/#entry2914134youtube- http://www.youtube.com/user/armykyle1big build starting Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I could brace the bottom ARM and just push done, done it with bolt cutters That would work, I have done it with 2/0, when I have multiple cables to do, like a dozen plus lugs to crimp and are 1/0, I call my brother in law over and have him do them, 220 and built like a brick shit house, it is nothing for him lol.

armykyle1 Posted November 27, 2011 Author Report Share Posted November 27, 2011 I have the harbor freight crimper too. I just turned one of the 0 game ones sideways until the 0 gauge would fit, then crimp away. Even doing that, its not going to fit Quote TEAM XS POWERTEAM HEAVY HERTZMy build- http://www.stevemeadedesigns.com/board/topic/194454-e46-bmw-build-pos/#entry2914134youtube- http://www.youtube.com/user/armykyle1big build starting Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
