Jim,I don't remember that reference in the book. I used three for my tailcables. I have seen some with one but wonder if the tool has a widersurface.

Jack, I ordered both ferrules swaging tool from ACS. The ferrules are 3/8-in long and the swager is 1/2-inch wide so the swage is done in just one crimp. I think the 1 vs 2 vs 3 crimps have reference to the crimping tool that has a much more narrow 'bite'. I think you are using much longer ferrules (copper colored vs plated) and a more narrow crimping tool. ----- Original Message -----

It works fine! Just takes a little longer than the one with the long handles -- like hedge clippers. When I was rebuilding a Piper TriPacer a few years ago I used that type. When you're working alone I believe the type with the two bolts is easier to use. ----- Original Message -----
