It Makes A Beautiful Lug

Again here is a positive battery cable & lug made with the "rotate" method so all corners are nicely rounded. You can see how it physically reduces the OD of the lug.


I should mention that this tool makes such a perfect fitting lug that when I experimented and tried to also solder one, after crimping, no solder would flow beyond the first crimp band. This crimp tool makes a completely water tight and solder tight joint.
