What kind of tool do I need to create these kind of cable assemblies?

(First Column in the table - Flat Flex Cable Assemblies)

0.1" terminals to either discrete wires or ribbon cable, then to 0.1" terminals again.
 
I use a vice to crimp flat ribbon cables with IDC or whatever connectors.
Works ok.
You can split them apart if you screw up and start over.
Sometimes the little tabs break, sometimes not.

Man, scary scene at Fry's.
24 registers, only one open.
I was the only customer at Hamilton and 17, pretty sad.
I heard the fired everybody and are now using temp workers so they don't have to pay health care. :shock:
