  Funny you should ask. I've JUST uploaded an updated article
  I published about 4 years ago in Kit Aircraft Builder. Please
  download:

  . . . the short answer is leave your soldering iron in
  the toolbox. Take the time to understand what crimped
  terminals are about, how to use the tools for applying
  them and selecting terminals for use on your project.
