Ratchet crimp tool part number Was Re: Crimp or solder?

[Bernard Littau]

More ratchet crimp tools that are available retail as well as mail order.

Note that any decent marine store will sell ratcheting crimpers and usually
have better than FLAPS quality crimp connectors available in small
quantities.  I have also had good luck getting high quality hoses, SS
clamps, and SS screws/bolts at marine stores.  In general, boats fall
between aircraft and automobiles in quality of the materials used in their
construction and maintenance.  Retail marine stores with generous weekend
hours are also quite common in many parts of the country.
