I use a allen wrench in a vice,I put the plug together...line up the wire...use a circle plyer to bend the wire 45 degrees(or more less than 90, maybe 50-60 degrees)then I put the wire around the allen wrench(the wrench is in a vice..tight) with reg plyers I bend the wire around the wrench about a turn...the I use the circle plyers to bend up the loop so its centered in the plug body...then I wrap it tight pulling on the body using reg plyers.......becareful wraping the wire tight some plugs you just want to snug the wire...medal liped plugs if you tighten the wire too much you'll bend the lip to the body.....needlefish and poppers I sock them down...I hate when the wire spins in a plug

hope I helped...ed
