When you crimp the connector back together it splices into the cable. I use a pair of pliers with a soft cloth in the jaws to keep the pliers from digging in and marking up the connectors. Just gently squeeze the connector back together. They're not hard to make. I've seen some selling on eBay but I can't see how you can make any money at it. I guess they're just trying to build up their feedback Roll Eyes
