Keep in mind I'm no electronics geek so there's probably an easier way of doing this... You'll notice on the power supply where it mentions the voltage and amps that there is a small diagram usually looking like a large "C" with a dot in the middle and positive/negative symbols nearby. This tells you if the wire in the center is the positive wire or not. I don't think I've ever seen a reverse polarity on one of these things so your center wire most likely carries the positive charge. I peeled the outer most plastic back about 6" to reveal the 2 wires and then I gathered the outside wires together and tapped them like you said. The inside wire requires you to strip away the white plastic covering which I then wanted to tap but I had the wrong sized ring nuts so that's why you see the extra green wire acting as a go-between. I hope this helps! Hey Jeremy, yeah it is kind of hard to see how it came together in the picture.

I got a power supply from work today, brought it home, and snipped the end off expecting two wires. It's just a white wire surrounded by more copper wire. From the pic it looks like you tapped the outside wires to the negative and added some other kind of extension to the positive. I'd really appreciate the help!
