This is so very important. You need a decent set up. You shouldn’t blame your tools so use the very best tools you can and you then you can’t.
the right tools make things easier.

But then I’d have to blame myself if it goes south. No fun in that

Good point but the whole going south in the first place might not happen

I’m gonna have a lot of screaming to do at the shop tmrw…that was supposed to be a titanium rod. Changed the speed from 2 to 3.5 (goes up to 6) and whack the shaft rod just bent…now gotta finish cutting my hole by hand

If its any consolation, I bought a genuine dremel tungsten carbide milling bit for doing motor shaft key slots and after the first one it flew out of the chuck and is now somewhere in New Zealand. It cost 40 bucks.
Probably not really in New Zealand but its gone none the less.

That has happened to me once. Had overtightened the screw on top. It broke off and the tungsten blade I had bought 20 minutes earlier went poof. Found it months later when my wife asked why there was a slash in one of our walls.
I’m almost finished, just cleaning up the sugru around the hole

is one of you talking about crimps on the connector end and the other talking about soldering on the battery end of the BMS wire?
Look at that head. I couldn’t possibly ruin my hair with a helmet.
We are going to get derailed soon bro

I’d have done it myself but…
In any case was well worth it, I needed to vent after my Dremel had a grudge against me

I cut the leads off the stock balance cables down to about 2 cm usually and then butt-splice them to the silicone 20 awg wire i typically use for balance leads. It’s way easier than crimping my own.
so both kinda?
