There's truth in that statement, XTC. I'm just bitter, that's all :)

Furthermore, I figured I'd never use a Molex crimper once my project was complete, so I dodn't go after one.

: : I tried to use molex connectors for my cocktail cab's removable control panels, but crimping the wires without a molex crimping tool (I'm cheap!) is a pain in the arse. It took me roughly 2 hours to crimp all of the leads in each 12 pin connector (8+ hours total).

: If you had spent that 8 hours searcing for loose change in the couch cushions and floor of your car, you could have bought a crimper.
