> Hey guys I just got a crimping tool soi can crimp some  ethernet cables.
however i have a fricken hard time getting the individual wires into the
modular plugs correctly.  I don't know how anyone can do it!!  How are u
supposed to stick one wire in there, keep it still so it wont move, while u
do another 7 wires??!!  AHHHHH!!!!!!!!!

Practice.

The best technique I've found is to sort them by color first, holding them
firmly in a fan shape with your thumb pressing them against the knuckle of
your forefinger. Then begin sliding them slowly in while adjusting back and
forth slightly to make sure each goes into the proper slot. Then just shove
it all in. It often helps to pull back the sleeve a bit so that it doesn't
ride up and prevent full insertion.

Have fun!
