I need to make up connectors like you see on the back of a computer.
My servo amps have a couple 2 row 15 pin, a 2 row 25 pin, and a 3 row
26 pin places to connect.

I'm seeing a bewildering number of possibilities in digikey. FWIW the
connector plug I'm after is similar to this pictu

or digikey part A32073-ND. I'm not after this part, just trying to
show the connector.

I'm not at all good at soldering in tight places. I much prefer
something that can be made up by crimping. I have a Molex type crimp
tool.

can someone suggest a good series of parts for this?

Have you ever used Mouser?

OK, I selected crimp, then male and got this is the first part:
617-09-56-200-5601

Now do i need some sort of shell, some kind of pins, missing anything
else? Any special tool?

Karl

Just looked some more I think maybe crimp is for ribbon cable?? I have
individual wires.

I have a good crimper I suppose i could use it for that if I had the
correct die.
After soldering connectors for many moons it never crosses my mind
although crimp is nicer (neater) once you have the tool it last's a
lifetime.

Thanks for the mouser link. I got up this morning and quickly selected
crimp connectors for just a few bucks. same stuff was $30 each at
digikey. I just placed an order and I'll crimp as best I can with
what I got and then solder reinforce. There's only four contacts used
in each plug.

thanks again
