BINGO!

I didn't know what to call them, Digikey stocks all sorts.

DoN, I need another crimper. Would you bring up the data sheet on the
above item and tell me which crimper to go for?

Automation Direct has the best prices on ferrules I've found, by far
-- 500 for $6 in the small sizes.

I use a ferrule crimper made by Wago. I haven't tried Automation
Direct's crimper.
