Needed a tool to help hold C9 sockets for install. This snaps onto my Vise Grips and holds a socket in place to be pressed/installed on wire...
Made a clamp cover for the opposite side as well: https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:4022276
Snug fit for sure...had to use a blank socket to press it on Vice Grips the first time. Also, tabs that go into the socket may break off during use, but it didn't seem to effect anything - I put on 250-ish sockets with my kids in a little over 2 hours.
I printed it with supports (on build plate), 100% infill, with the part that connects to vice grips facing up.
