You use a "crimping tool" to crimp the metal tube around the bare wire to hold it solidly in place and to facilitate conduction. The wires are "butted" together inside the tube and crimped to make a safe and effective "splice". You use the same tool and the same method for "ring lugs" and "fork lugs". Its a common method for electrical connection and if performed properly, is more or less permanent and extremely reliable. xponent Don't Ask About The Buttplugs Maru rob ___ http://www.mccmedia.com/mailman/listinfo/brin-l

I don't know if it would help, but when I need ergonomic options I usually surf around on www.thomasregister.com to looks for options. If you have never used it, it houses hundreds of catalogs that can be searched then viewed, etc. The other thing that would help is to know your optimal grip circumference/diameter (for most "average" guys it is around 6 1/4" circumference as best I can recall). If you are doing something repeatedly there will be less fatigue if you don't have to use a higher percent of your strength.
