I'm buying all the tools to make up this cable.  I need 5 of them
and figured its not worth trying to mickey mouse in an
after maket cable here.   This new cable will be 6 gauge
with the proper 8mm ring terminal on each end.  I think, I
can make these up as cheap as $6 each, and shipping..
 Anyone interested  let me know.
