I use the HX4 with the Y501 dies when doing the butt and blade type
and the AF8 or the AFM8 for any pins.
Also the link to DMC Daniels Manufacturing Corporation
The site is not that easy to navigate unless you know the part number
or the name of the blade,pin or butt connector you looking for. If you
don't know it can still be found just takes some work or luck. But you can
find it. They do have a minimum order of $50 and they can be slow do to
all the orders they have coming in from larger places but if you have the
lead time and don't mind the wait for good tools for doing the work. You
can also find there tools on Ebay.
Also I think that they supply some terminals just not 100% sure on that.
Here is a set of HX4 with the Y501 dies.

If you watch Ebay and use a snip tool you can get a set for a nice price.

That is a great step over the home store junk but not quite up there with
DMC or Astro. The thing with those is they have traceability and that is key.
They also have go/no-go check gauge sets for them. Both the tool and gauge
can be sent back in for calibrations and you get a tag with a date to prove that.
I'm starting to use Dogpile, for my search engine again and finding more results than I got with Google. The terminals are wedgelock, .060 diameter, open barrell type.
