Default Which Molex crimping tool?

I want to get a crimper so I can put the leads on molex wires, both the small ones in the 3 pin connector and the regular big ones for the 4 pin. I was wondering if there is one I can pick up at Home Depot or is the crimper specialized for Molex and I have to order it? Thanks.

Ya, the "molex" ones I see online don't look much different from the regular ones, that's why I couldn't figure it out. (I'm not an electrician obviously)

I'd like to start making my own cables and sleeve them, but don't know what the best tool(s) to get are, besides maybe a soldering iron.

I would much recommend http://www.performance-pcs.com/catal...oducts_id=1277
that type instead. I have both, the more complicated (expensive) set is definitely easier to use.
