I finally stopped crimping F connectors with my teeth on 500 foot RG11 runs

Did my first big RG11 pull back in 2008 and pinched every connector with my front teeth because nobody told me the hex tool was in the pouch. A 22 year old kid on my crew in Boise watched me do it on a dish mount and just handed me his tool without a word. My dentist bill was $180 and I still think about that day, what's your dumbest shortcut that became a habit?
