When i wired the frames i didnt crimp it; didnt know about that struff Does it matter? :idunno:

It adds more surface area and tightens the wire, right?. i got the wire as tight as i can get them without breaking.

The wire doesn't really matter at all, so crimped or not, it won't matter either. :) Yes it adds surface and radiates the stress better if it's crimped.
