Strip off about 25 mm of the outer (usually brown) plastic coating.
Peel back the braided copper to make a bulging ring of it around the top edge of the plastic.
Dismantle the plug. Feed the screw cap over this bulge of copper.
Strip about 8 mm of the inner white plastic to reveal the inner solid copper core. Unless you're going to use a soldering iron, put a slight kink in this inner core to help it grip.
Open up the 4 'prongs' on the next bit of the plug to about the size of the cable.
Feed the inner core into the inner shaft of the plug, through the pronged bit. Use your fingers to press the prongs onto the braided copper. Finally, screw the cap part onto the rest of the plug.

Strip the outer plastic to reveal the braided copper.
Fold this back away from the plastic tube.
Leave the inner thin wire protruding from the tube about 2mm.
The whole thing goes through the metal holder and should be tightened before inserting into a socket.
You don't need crimpers or solder - just a sharp knife.

the easiest method is to buy a special stripper.
failing that cut the outer cable about an inch to the next layer.
next cut through to the centre wire an eighth of an inch from the outer layer.you will be left with a longish centre wire.
slide screw cap of plug on cable next open little grip slightly and slide on cable,thread wire into centre of plug.
assemble plug and snip off any extra wire sticking out.

First you need the TV co-axial plug, obtain from Maplins, and a few more electrial shops.You may have to solder the wires to the back of the pins, making sure, first that you have the cover section on first, before you start otherwise you have to undo and re solder them. Making sure you have the right colour to right pins. screw up and hey presto. But yes you may do it with crimpers, but do come loose.

Wire crimpers, you can get them at Walmart or hardware store. I merely pinches the end together for a good secure connection.
