Duh, I slapped myself on the forehead. I've been using a vise grip pliers, and all the time I had a vise on my drill press. So glad I saw this video. Thanks for posting, TwistedPearAuio. (Audio?)
Right now, I'm designing a circuit that needs to be connected to another board. Since I am aiming for a compact design, I opted for ribbon cables as my connector to the other board! Do you mind telling me the part numbers to those components you used? I am having trouble looking for one.

There was a lotta “that’s what she said” jokes going through my head watching this video..
Thank you soooooooooooo much!
nice guide sure saves expensive crimpers !
If you only need to do a few then sure. But if you're doing a lot of crimps then a cheap but good IDC crimper is only $16
What the hell is the difference between this and standard header connections?
Thanks for the video. Do you also have the p/n for those parts?
Perfect!
Tyvm for the vice idea. I have that :)

IDC10 or ICD 10 Pin connector. Other thing is just the ribbon 10+ wires will do.
how much vibration can those take? , will they a fail when attached to say a spindle motor?
Can you use ribbon cables in a modern desktop system?.
Thanks for the video but how do you Open and take of the cable retention piece from the connector without breaking it ?
very carefully
This connector pin name
Ribbon Crimp Connector - 10-pin, you can find it also if you google FC-10P
Thank you
thank you
is pcb part connected properly?
you put the arrow in the opposite direction!!!!
sorry
i saw the (10) not the 1 thinking it (01)
