So I finally had time to pick up my MMJ crimper....

It came in last week, I ordered it from Kendall electric. It's an Ideal Industries Crimpmaster. I was a little disappointed to find that it was made in Taiwan. Oh well, at least they are allies. I bought the connectors to go along with it too. I got home, promptly cut off the filed down standard RJ11 connector off of one end of my cable. THEN, I tried putting a new connector into the crimper.... I couldn't figure out how the dumb thing was supposed to work! I was thinking GREAT, I just dumped 70 bucks into a specialized tool I can't seem to use. I checked part numbers several times. Turns out the MMJ die set was in wrong.... they misassembled it at the factory. It worked fine once I straightened it out :-) Now I have a proper cable :-) Maybe sometime soon I can start messing around with the Vax again.... still need to break into VMS.
