My Snap on crimping pliers have a "W" crimp on them that does the same thing as the Accel tool, I can get you the part number if you want to go that route.

Right then, the Snap on crimping pliers that have a W crimp on them are part no PWC12A, they are also excellent for fitting the usual red, blue and yellow wiring connectors as they fit those with a U shaped die rather than just squashing them like cheapo crimpers do, you won't want to use anything else once you've tried them....
