Here is the crimping tool I suggest for coax. https://www.amazon.com/Greenlee-8049-CrimpALL-Crimper-Universal/dp/B0012YQ9VM
I would pair that with a CST stripping tool, and you should be good to go.
Getting the blade depths dialed in on the stripper can be a pain, but once you've got that done the rest is pretty easy.
Basically you slide the sleeve onto the cable, strip the end, trim the center conductor, crimp the center pin, push on the connector, slide the sleeve back up, crimp, done.
If you don't like the three piece crimp there are also compression style connectors you can get. I've never used them, but I think it generally comes down to personal preference.
