Default Servo extensions?

I ordered some male & female Futaba plugs from Servo & Stuff, & the male plugs were garbage. For you guys that make your own extensions, where do you get your supplies?
Thanks

I buy my stuff here www.cheapyharnesses.com. As for crimping tool, get a good one from Radio Shack or Fry's. I have the $10 one from these guys and it also works great. I also use a wire stripper from Radio Shack, which is a POS if you ask me.

Once you start naking your harnesses, you'll never go back.

Peak Electronics. Their pins are heavy duty, the plastic components are the best and the sleeves for the female plugs are full length.

I have tried all the others, including Hansen Hobbies, and the Peak stuff is superior. It is exactly what you get if you order JR heavy duty pre-made extensions.

Thanks guys.. FYI, the male plugs from Servos & Stuff dont hold in the stock Futaba, or the female plugs from Servo's & stuff. They just fall right out like they're too small. Not sure if I have a Bad batch, but I wont be ordering from that place again.
