blockquote, div.yahoo_quoted { margin-left: 0 !important; border-left:1px #715FFA solid !important; padding-left:1ex !important; background-color:white !important; } Bob, when I'm making new cables for something like a Piper Super Cub, the sleeves require THREE Swages. If they are crimped correctly there should be a nice even ridge between each swage. That is done with the regular Nicopress tool. I believe the smaller sleeves should have at least two even crimps. Mine only has one and that made me very uncomfortable.

Someone did say that 1 crimp is sufficient and I assume that would just be in the middle of the sleeve. Any other thoughts on this?
