That set should come with a nifty plastic tool that's both an insulation cutting tool, to get the right amount of electrode exposed; and a crimping tool, to get the ends on just right.

If one doesn't come in the package you should pick one up because they make the job of installing ends an easy, repetitive task with good results. I think I've got two or three of them out in the shop if you don't get one and want to wait for snail mail.

Roger: Thanks thats most gracious of you to offer, I hope one will come with the wires. Thanks for the inputs.

Roger: I had to buy one of these tools but for $9.95 it was worth every penny. Thanks again for telling/showing me the tool. (:
