Crimping 4g Wire

Crimping 4g Wire
I don't know how the rest of you do it...
I've heard all kinds of wacky things like using hammers and what not...
but after about an hour of experimenting and struggling with various tools (pliers, hammers, needlenose, etc)... i finally figured out a fairly easy way to crimp 4g wire... without a proper crimping tool (that can do 4g wire).
I used ... a vise clamp... sure it takes a couple of times, but its actually pretty easy on the hands (i'm not very strong)... the adjustabilty helped tons and allowed me to crimp each terminal in increments without to much effort...
anyhow for those of you intimidated by 4g wire... hope it helps...
