  I have limited eyesight in that my close-up eyesight is
  monocular, not binocular - no close-up depth perception -
  so a soldering iron or torch is a deadly weapon in my hands.
  That's why I had my K2 built by a local builder.

  I do crimps very well, partially by feel.  That takes skill but
  I do it.
