Title: Attaching lugs to 2/0 cable
Post by: robert.mcpheron on August 28, 2008, 06:55:28 PM
I love it, I like it, I like to figure things out and I have come upon a great solution...

I bought a air power tool (about $50 ) set that included and impact wrench to take wheels off my car..

There was a power chisel in there ( normally used for removing mufflers) and I just figured that it should work to crimp lugs to 2/0 cable. well in about 1 second it will attach a lug to a piece  2/0 wire. If you don't have and air compressor and air tools this won't help you, although most us if we don't have air tools and a compressor we know someone who does..

I Just paid $40 plus shipping for the hammer tool (I don't have it yet ) and I paid $40 or $50 at sam's for the air tool set the air tool set has about 4 or 5 tools included. Happy crimping. For more detail give me a call Mac Mc Pheron 847-699-8835 :)
