Toolbox: Wire Crimper/Stripper
« on: November 25, 2013, 03:38:20 pm »
I bought this and just when I need it most, I can't find it.

I hate to buy the same tool twice, does anyone have recommendations on a similar, better, but perhaps not too much more expensive?  I'd prefer to buy from amazon.  Locally, they are generics or 24.99 for something that looked lesser than that.

Thanks.

I have this ratcheting wire stripper and the optional stopper, for perfect wire strips every time. It's well worth the extra money, and it's not very expensive (about $30).

Amazon.com: Klein Tools 11063 8-22 AWG Katapult Wire Stripper: Home Improvement
Amazon.com: Klein Tools 11081 Adjustable Wire Stop for Katapult Wire Stripper: Home Improvement

And here is my ratcheting double crimp tool. It makes factory like crimps where the insulation and wire is crimped, all in one shot. Same deal with price, not cheap, but not very expensive (about $30).

Now I can understand why my dad has two of every tool.  I also lose my tools from time to time and by the time I buy a new one I find the old one.   :lol
