Or beg steal or borrow the right crimps then.

Doesn't sound as if the work could be taken to a friendly spark to be
done where they happen to be working. Trying to borrow a suitable crimp
tool would be my approach to start with.

By the look of the cable size its going to take quite some current and
you really don't want a high resistance duff joint else look forward to
arcing and fire and smoke and damage!...

Agreed, soldering is OK but remember that you need a good mechnical joint
as well. In this high current case even more so IMHO.
