    5$ Battery Terminal Crimper with professional results.

    For the very few terminals most of us have to crimp it's not worth spending money on a set of crimpers.

    I came up with this sure its little slower, but its cheap compact takes about half hour to knock up and can sit in the top of the toolbox without taking up much room.

    I built the smaller one today for doing accessories stuff.

    Finally a cheap solution to battery terminals. Pain in the ares having to go to an auto electrician to get cables crimped. 9 times out of 10 you need it after you've had 6 beers and cant drive or it will be a saturday or sunday and everything is shut.

    Looks good mate.

    I use a pair of 14" Bolt cutters to crimp upto 35mm2 fittings with ease. That will work well though for sure.
    Its a Nissan! =====> Its a Keeper!! ....... Got a TD42 in it BONUS!! ....... I'm a lucky bugger! I've got 2 of em!

    The only good thing about an 80 series is..... the front end?? Wrong!!, the Engine?? Wrong!! the Full Time 4WD system?? Wrong!! Its the NissanPatrol.com.au stubby holder fitted over the transfer lever.
