Mil-spec connector help please

[DRJDVM's '69]

Those are pretty nice...
I bought some from John, but am having second thoughts about doing all that work cutting and putting ends on each wire....making sure you get the wire matched on each side of the recepticle etc...

Plus I'm having a hard time finding a good spot on the interior side that has a space deep enough to have the recepticle and all those wires coming straight out of it....

With the angled side....does that make a big difference in tight areas vs the straight side?

What crimping too do you need for these?

Here is the crimp to we use. Seems to me the tool was like 229 NEW.

DMC also makes a nice Crimp tool. We have that one also.
