I have one of the first HFT hydraulic crimpers, but the dies are too small for anything thicker than 4awg.
I have filed/ground out some of the smaller sizes to do 2awg thick walled ring terminals and 4awg, but I would like to try the tool shown above, which can be found for under 30$ on Ebay.

The HFT Hydraulic crimper is kind of awkward and clunky and can require some effort and lots of time to get a good looking earless crimp.
