Like mechanical work, the right tools are important. I use an Xcelite cutter and an Ideal stripper. The crimper is by AMP, intended for Mate-N-Lok connectors, but works well for the Jr Timer contacts in the Ljet loom. I also use a Steinel heatgun. Other tools are: dispenser for isopropanol, razor-knife, scissors, Kapton tape dispenser.

Very nice work Dave. The attention to detail is impressive. You have the right tools for the work too.
Reminds me of the wiring harnesses we used to build for ocean going navy tug boats when I was in the ship yard. We had boxes of the heat shrink connectors to join various parts of the harness. End result was a water and vapor proof harness. I think the price was in the XX thousands, took about 40 manhours each to build. Tom |
