I bought a 1000' cable from computergeeks.com and it never came with something on how to make your own CAT 5 wire

I tried to search for it on Google.com but came up with poor results

If some people know a good web site to teach you how to make your own please let me know

Thanks,

with that order, place the end on with the clip facing down, stick in, make sure cables are in the right order and far enough up so that when crimped the metal teeth make contact with the wires (just look at the wires and see if they're up there far enough so that they'll be punched)

Those are the fundamentals... memorize that and you'll be making all of your own cables (that's what I do :))
