Dupont crimping tool adapter

thingiverse

I bought a cheep crimping tool for crimping Dupont style wires. To make things a little easier, I created this adapter and glued it to my pliers. Now I simply stick the plug in the adapter, add the cable and press it with the crimp tool. Afterwards I usually have to use needle nosed pliers and press on the part where the copper wire sits, because the crimp tool does not do that very well. I decided to print this with the square part sitting on the print bed and adding support for the rectangular part. Here is a link for the crimp tool: https://www.aliexpress.com/wholesale?catId=0&initiative_id=SB_20190113012235&SearchText=HS-202B A good description of common crimping tools with lots of background information can be found here: http://tech.mattmillman.com/info/crimpconnectors/
