hi john,
the spade ends being thin brass, are very easy to crimp.
but i dont think anyone crimps them onto the actual HT lead.
cut the lead back far enough, so when you push the wire inner into the spade end. the wire goes past the two holes.
that way you can solder the two holes and hold the spade end tight.
hope that helps.
but it may be easier if someone puts a picture up for you.
