Cheapo ebay terminal crimping tool

[gt6s]

Will be converting my MIG to Dinze earth socket to match my other machines. I decided I WANT a crimp tool for the lug terminals inside the machine. I repeat this is purely WANT not NEED as I have quite happily soldered these little buggers on for many years. Anyroads pliers type large hexagonal crimpers are in the ball park of £150. I found this hydraulic one brand new complete with dies for £20 including free delivery. WOW how do they do this for the money ?
A mate of mine has a Triumph Grinnall TR8 and he is repositioning the battery into the boot. I told him I would crimp on the starter terminal to the new battery lead for him. I shall only charge £20 to do this as the rule for new equipment is that the first job pays for the tool. Am I generous or what ?

You could buy this one for £17.99 and save him a couple of quid, some mate you are ! What are you going to do for him when you buy a new welder ?

£i7.99 didn't see that one. I have already told him crimping the terminal will be twenty quid. He has just built himself a new electric cig he says he will show me that for twenty also. Told him I did not want to see it. Ain't found a mug sorry customer to pay for the new TIG yet.

Bet you charge your other half petrol money when you go out?

Nope ! Very single mate. Old and very single.

I bought my crimp tool a while back, paid a bit extra and got one in a better case and in blue with a ratchet cable cutter.
Even at double what you paid it still brings a smile to my face. I have a friend who refurbs/sells winches when he had a go he ordered one immediately.

What amazes me is someone is getting paid to make the tooling,build the tool,company who sells them make a profit,importer makes a profit and end seller makes a profit(importer and end seller may be the same) and they are £20!!! It's not even a round of drinks

 

[Nick67GT]

WTF!? - this such an unmissable bargain I think I'll buy one.

I can't even think when I might need it......
