[Echoceres]

is this the right crimper i need ? https://n4.sdlcdn.com/imgs/a/s/a/Stanley-Yellow-Black-Fibre-And-SDL578253596-1-c5fdd.jpg

Idk whats the crimping tool exact name so im trying to find a crimper thats available here in philippines. Im also gonna use a 3mm paracord for sleeving. And i think im gonna reuse the plug at the end of my cables cos i don't know where exactly to get them. If anyone know how to remove the plugs properly that would help too.

The link you provided is a wire stripper, not a crimper. Its to remove the plastic insulation around the wire to reveal the wire inside. A crimper is something like this, http://www.performance-pcs.com/deluxe-molex-hand-crimp-tool.html

If you're going to cut the cables short, you would probably need more pins like these, http://www.performance-pcs.com/connector-pins-terminals

If you're not sure about how to go about it, I would advise against doing the cables on your own as there are usually split cables involved which are quite complicated as far as sleeving goes.

You can reuse the plastic housing (assuming that's what you mean by "plug") by using a tool like this, http://www.performance-pcs.com/ppcs-professional-atx-24-8-6-4-pin-power-connector-extractor-tool-pin-remover-male.html

Good luck!

what i meant about the plug was the pin, oh maybe doing that is kinda hard.

is it okay for me to cut it on one end then solder it again and wrap it with heat shrink? it will probably be hidden within the sleeving.
