I used to do them that way.  Takes wayyyy too long.

At least get the right stripper.

Ryan:

To make the connectors; I use four tools;

1 small Cresent wrench
1 box wrench
1 box cutter
1 small butane power soilder tip

A whopping $3.00 woth of tools.

I only use amphenol brand connectors.  There is really no need to buy an
expensive dipole solidering forceps; unless you will have another use
for such an expensive piece of equipment.  Other than that it is the
basics... Read the cutback measurements for your connectors and you will
not have a problem.

HTH...

I am looking for tools to / kits for LMR400 "N" connectors. I was
recently
given a few hundred feet of LMR400 and I am always in need of short runs
of
cable here and there.

What kits/tools do you use?

Where can I get these tools/kits/parts?

Why do you like the ones you have?
