Try Maplin for your connectors. Alternatively you can get them online from RS components. Neutrik connectors are cost effective and simple to wire. You can get your cable from RS components as well. Theyve got a warehouse in altens. You can pick up a decent soldering iron kit (wire strippers, etc) for 50 if you can part with the cash. As for the wiring schematics, you are probably best to search on google or audio engineering sites. i imagine to achieve a mono output, only one of the two cores( live or ground) will need to be connected to pins 2 or 3 respectively. the shield (outer loose wires) will got to pin 1 of the 3.5mm jack. it can be more complicated if you involve balanced line outputs. this just means that the signal will maintain a certain level when it reaches your PC but involves more wiring. anyhoo ill not bore you any longer.
