Is there a trick to using the small pliers and hog rings for closing off a casing? Or a completely different option?
I inevitably end up with too large a ring that leaves a loose ring crimp, or it crimps too tight tearing into the casing. What's the secret?

Anyone have this Walton's clipping machine and do you recommend it?

I use this

I use three different sizes. 3/4", 1/2" & 3/8". I also have a taping machine like Scogar suggests. Probably use it more than anything. And then there is always butcher's twine. double granny knot. works for most everything.
