It looks like the price has gone up a several dollars since I bought it this tool if this is the current sale price.
You should get their commended models of crimpable 8P8C connectors to use with this tool, though, as I recall there are various different manufacturers / models of 8P8C connectors and while they all may be compatible with the ethernet modular connector specifications, other aspects of the plugs are NOT compatible from tool to tool and things like the "wire pass through the plug" design where the crimper trims the excess wire away from past the front of the plug is one example where there are different crimpers / plugs which aren't compatible.
I got these plugs to work with this crimper:

You'll probably want some cable strain relief boots also before making your cables.
And for jacks some keystone type jacks / face plates and a 110-type punch tool e.g.:

I must say I appreciate that these have RJ-45B/A diagrams right at hand & in front of you to verify right before you squeeze to crimp - smart for monkey brains on 'cruise control'. These ergonomics look better for not having to re-adjust your hold on the tool through the process.

If you need boots, don't buy the Klein version (VDV824-650) even though it says it'll work with cat6. It's too small for the cat6 from Monoprice.
I also bought this expensive toy to unwind the wires. Works but not needed. Untwist Tool PRO Cordless [amazon.com].
If this is your first time DIY, make sure to buy a cable tester.

This (the older type) is the only type I've ever known.
Back in my day we had to learn OWOGWBBWGBWB by stripping the cable/leads manually, cutting the leads to the correct length, forcing them to line up in the right order (which they never wanted to be in) shoving them all in & then crimping before they could wiggle back out—and dammit, it built character! ヾ(`ヘ´)ﾉﾞ
