I purchased replacement pins so I could shorten my servo wires to the receiver. The replacements pin require the use of a crimp tool. The pins are the metal pieces that go into the plastic tab the plugs into the receiver.
Does anyone know what type of crimp tool you would use for the servo wires and where to buy it?
Here is an example of what I'm talking about (http://www3.towerhobbies.com/cgi-bin...&I=LXTSH2&P=ML)
Here is an article describing what I want to do (http://rcbuilder.com/lh_guide/shorte...ervo_wires.htm)

Needle nose pliers would work, but I'm a bit anal about certain things. If I'm going to go through the trouble of reducing the length of the wires for my electronics, I don't want to risk failure from a poor connection.
I'm going to try a local Radio Shack and a Fry's Electronics and see what they have.
