I can look and see if I have MMJ parts I could loan.

That said, does anyone have an MMJ crimper they could bring to VCF? And I good source for the connectors themselves?

I have a 1000' spool of "silver satin" 6-wire cable to share, and places where the authentic DEC parts aren't important to me.

I've brought my crimper tool to EVERY VCF I've attended. You supply the 6 conductor flat cable and I'll put the ends on it for you.
