    NICEIC Tech Talk

    Never go to the Tech Talks as all designed to take money from you. They say NIC is non profit making too! How much do you value your services at? Cost that in and the whole day costs you dearly. If I saw TC I would probably stick one of his DVDs up his buckside!!

Anyone any recommendations as to which seals / crimpers? And please, don't start the boring discussion...
