Topic: Making New X-axis harness but stuck

So I finally got the correct connectors for the motherboard and stepper. They are JST-PH connectos. But the problem is the crimps are really small and too small for my current crimper. What crimping tool do I need to properly crimp these connectors?

And that is not the correct crimping tool. SH and PH are 2 completely different connectors.

The actual crimp is the same for all of them in the series. The Letters just designate the contact type. 

You just use that one and make sure you use the side for the wire gauge you are using.

But if you don't want to believe me over 15 bucks, then just Google as I said and pick any of the other 500 or so that come up that actually say PH..
