Coax cable stripping. Learn how to strip a coax cable for TV. I use a RG6, twist on F connector rather than a crimp on f connector so there are no special tools. This is for my Fios Cable TV and it works great! If the video was helpful, remember to give it a thumbs up and consider subscribing. New videos every Thursday -Website

Harbor Freight sells a kit that you can use instead of this. It ain't top notch but it's better. This will definitely cause signal issues down the road and possibly a visit from the cable company as it can possibly cause interference back to the cabling system and to your neighbors which share the same system. Do it as a temporary fix and then call the cable company to do it right.

Chris, I normally like your videos. but on this one I'd have to say stick to fixing cars. Using those cheap crap connectors is a good way to cause excess noise on the line. It might work fine at first. but later you might experience random internet drop outs or a random bad picture on your TVs.

cheers Chris. i did not know about the screw on so will give that a crack. i don't really want to buy the fancy cutting tool & compression tool. for DIY i think it's not too shabby for this neighborhood mama. if the signal gives me any dramas then i will revisit my train of thought.

Everything you say in this video is wrong. Well, maybe your name is correct.
To correct the video start with saying never use twist on connectors.

Thanks Chris. I actually bought a Klein tool cutter and could have just used a razor knife and saved myself 15. Back up and running. Thanks again!

screw on fittings are troublesome do not use them. use compression fittings only. trim off the end to a sixteenth if an inch.

twist connects can leak vs the compression crimp-on when you see the tyling on the tv screen change it to a compression F
