Since Linux guys are more DIY than Windows guys...

What tool or adapter do you use to twist electrical wires?  I don't
trust those "Wago" connectors, because they only have 2 points of
contact.  I prefer to twist the wires for contact surface, and use wire
cap connector to hold the twisted end together.

1.  I used to use linesman's pliers, as usual.  But, my wrists are not
what they used to be, and carpal tunnel and tennis elbow don't help
either.  So, I'm looking for an easier way, more power tool way.

2.  Amazon has lots under "wire twisting tool" search.  But, they don't
grab the wires and apply tension, so the twisted wires don't end up
straight.  Also, most adapters wrap wires around 1 centre wire, but
that's not ideal for "wire cap connectors".

3.  I made 2 adapters (pictures attached).  But, they don't apply
tension, so the twisted wired are not straight.  In fact, the results
are ugly.

4.  Right now, I am using drill chuck to hold the wires in tension. But,
I'm looking for something lighter.------------------------------------
