[sdiy] JST Crimp Tool?

Can anyone recommend a crimping tool that does a good job with the pins 
for JST connectors (XH and some PH)? Ideally one I can get in north 
america fairly quickly?

The crimp tool I have that I have (SN-28B) seems to be too wide, so in 
addition to nicely crimping it also deforms the front connector section 
making it unusable. The ratchet-style is nice though.

This is just for prototyping, so I only need to do ~300 crimps.

Interestingly, the jaws on that SN-28B are removable - so maybe 
replacement jaws are available for JST-XH pins?
