Solid review. For what it's worth, around here we just say "gauge", like "four gauge" or "two-aught gauge". Nobody's going to talk trash about pronunciation, though, when you're the only guy with working winch cables...
Thanks for making this video. I would like to add the die you used doesn't fit that lug, a proper crimp with this tool doesn't have wings, it should finish as a perfect hexagon.
i like this also cause i can do it right there while putting the wires on the make sure the end is in the perfect spot so wire do buck up it lays flat out of the way so much better looks more professional that way
In order to see if crimp is really good you should have cut through the center of crimp. On a good crimp you will not see the wire strands, but it will look like a solid piece of copper.
i just bought me one of these tools i was going to buy new wires for golf cart they want 235 dollars for the set i said i can buy the tool an make the extreme connections with marine grade glue shrink wrap that will never corrode an last forever for half that price
Thank you for the tip on grinding the die. I need to do some 1/0 wire with oversize lugs and was worried it wouldn't work. This showed me its possible

AWG American Wire Gauge
Yeah, AWG is not a word. Aug or oþerwise.

Its impossible without clocking 90 and u doing the original crimp. A more expensive crimper makes a perfect hex. I have both
Good information and education I appreciate it. Thank you!
Mike another good crimper I found is one for the hammer.. Put lug and wire in it and give it a good hit and done.
Excellent video, I was just about to make some lugs, and I thought I would watch a how to video, thank you for sharing, great job!!!!!
"AWG"

I think this tool would be much more popular if it went up to 000

I got one today, it won't open up enough to do 0 awg even tho the die says its for 0
Negative ghost rider. Zero gauge is bigger than 2 gauge.
