Iserian - Put "crimp ratchet" into the forum search to get about 8 threads of info and links that won't bust your budget.

Been using something like that for years, no complaints.

You've been using crush type crimpers for these types of terminal pins?

...and have no complaints? You're full of ---steaming pile of meadow muffin---.

On a side note; iserian, you can get a set of the crimpers I pictured earlier for $20-$30 that come with the dies to crimp the "standard" Molex pins found in arcade cabs and buy the set of dies in the picture for smaller terminal pins (Micro-Fit) for about $7 shipped.

I got one like this off ebay:


And I went from 15 minutes-per unreliable crimp (and a lot of swearing), to 3 or 4 crimps a minute with extremely high reliability. It holds the terminal in place with a little spring loaded clamp, you just insert the wire, and both crimp areas are compressed in one squeeze. Mine came with a Micro-Fit style die (like in the picture), which works well enough for both the wire-to-wire connections and the pins needed for the wire-to-board connectors as well.
