In Reply to: User510, This is all your fault. Even though I hate Home Depot.... posted by artemus on November 22, 2006 at 17:40:19:
When I made some for friends, I used the gold RS spades with the largest openings and they crimped down tightly, though it does take a little work. You need to twist the three wires as tightly as possible before forcing them into the openings. I used Caig Pro Gold and Walker SST on the bare copper ends to help aqchieve the best possible connections.
