This is for SC connectors, St, probably similar would work. And I was=20
going to suggest Cables to Go.

I put my own ends on the 62.5/125. Strip every thing back as necessary,=20
except the coating on the fiber it self. That I use a sharp exacto knife=20
or razor blade against the thumb print, gently blade 90 degrees to the=20
fiber, several strokes rotating the fiber each stroke to remove the=20
coating. When the fiber is inserted in the connector, you should feel=20
the sharp end of the fiber. Mix some fast setting epoxy, with a syringe,=20
inject a few drops into the connector, push the fiber in, check for the=20
sharp end protruding, and cure. Make a metal (aluminum) template to keep=20
the connector perpendicular with polishing, a 1" or 2" sq x 1/8" thick.=20
Drill a tight for the connector center hole. I have used 600 grit=20
wet/dry sandpaper (dry). A half dozen swirls usually enough to polish.=20
This is not a replacement for the fancy equipment and the techniques=20
usually done, but for my 250' cable here at home, it works fine. I use=20
the Tyco 5503415-1 connectors.
