The compartmented box makes sense you know. When you use them & decide they are rubbish & throw them against a brick wall, the crimps don't all get mixed up if they be in nice little sections. Of course, Human Nature being what it is & firing velocities come into the equation, they could be all over the Workshop floor & down the dark inspection pit.

In this case the box is far more useful than the contents.

Too right it is, & what would most of us give for a Compartmentalised box?

Come on! You all know how to solder.

If you want electrical stuff, go to an electrical supplier like JohnR.Turk or similar... Bloody cheapskates.

Been soldering since I was 10, Tazza. Thing is, sometimes you need to make a joint that can be conveniently unmade.

Used a Deutsch plug in the end. Didn't know I wanted a Deutsch crimper until now....
