I wanted to be able to see the landscape when sitting in my chair relaxing and also be able to lean on my railing. I just finished adding new decks front and rear. I decided to use pine logs right off my property to keep the cabin feel. I ordered a different brand of crimper and returned it because the box did not hold the parts correctly and the size of the crimper dies were not marked. This crimper works great with Steel DN Mate Swage Lag Screws. I crimped each swage twice and none came loose when I tightened them. Be aware after a day of crimping, you will have some sore arm and neck muscles! Cable Crimpers require lots of muscle. Recommended! I learned a few things along the way that were helpful. Below is a list of items I purchased from Amazon. I'll be reviewing each over the next day or so and include some tips I learned while doing this job.
