Hi,
I'd really like to get into braiding PSU, SATA, fan etc. cables on a rig as opposed to trying to keep cable-looms looking reasonably tidy using cable-ties only but to be honest am finding what's available on the market from various re-sellers to be overwhelming.
Can anyone on here be kind enough to advise what size cable braiding and heatshrink they would recommend buying to braid these cables please?
Also any recommendations on where to buy would be appreciated. Understand that braiding comes in varying densities too. Would not want the colours of cables within the cable braid to be showing therefore at a guess a medium to high density cable braid really needs to be bought (unsure whether there's such a thing as medium to high density but hopefully you can get where I'm coming from so to speak) but cannot afford to buy really high end stuff and would not want to have to pay import duty, VAT etc. on importing anything either.
It'd be great to put an assortment of cable-braid, heat-shrink, plugs, sockets and pins together but I've no idea what to buy.
How would you make a start on this? Perhaps practice cable-braiding on a reasonably inexpensive PSU is a good idea. Really don't know.
Any suggestions would be appreciated.
Thank you.
