Tom,
You are correct - a hexagon shaped crimper die will not adequately crimp
the APP barrel unless the wire size is large enough to fit *very*
tightly into the barrel, and that is definitely not the normal situation
(yes, I have tried it, with dismal failure). The crimping die must both

Lisa tells me that if you ask, you can actually buy the ready-made cable
