I've used these two products in the past. Pretty easy to setup.
Dual Row 8 Position Barrier Strip

8 Position Jumper

The jumper slips onto one side of the barrier strip and connects all the points, then I drilled a hole on the jumber strip and connected a wire to it and the ground.

Get a better crimper and you will never have another bad crimp.

Would a wire nut work? Just strip about 1/2 an inch on each wire, twist them all together and screw on an electrical wire nut.
Not elegant, but it should work pretty well.

LOL, thats a bunch of crap lol. My crimper was 23.99 and was highly recommended over all the others by an actual electrician , so i do not think a better crimper will solve my troubles. Sorry eightbit, nice try though :)

Not a bad idea, but i does stir some other ideas in my mind. I will have to play with them in my head a bit. If i come up with something i will post it here.
