All my RS heatshrink looks great, except the printing on the outside that has size and info, but I think it actually looks kinda neat.

Links are in my sig if you need to see my DIYs

Next time you use heat shrink use a heat gun, it will keep the heat shrink from being shinny.

I think that it is this newer ratshack heatshrink. I bought a package about 3 weeks ago and it was the normal, not shiny stuff (but had the info on it). Then, about a week and a half ago I wewnt in to get some more and all they had in all black was the shiny stuff. Granted, it didn't have the info printed on it, but it was shinny. RH, I appreciate your advice, but I think that the shinny-ness (is that a word?) in this case is just how the ssuff comes/came.

Also next time you order from Wirecare, get some of there heat shrink. Is as there other products are is very good quality.

Good advice again and already did. I ordered about 7 feet of different types of heat shrink from them this morning

[TheRH]

Cool deal, oh just want to let you know that the wirecare heat shrink requires just a little higher heat get a tight fit.

Thanks for the ehads up, I'll keep that in mind and hopefully that stuff will give a bit closer seal.

SPC cables does looked neat. I have to give them a try after this

My first cable. mini -> rca cat5 and rat shack parts. You can see the process i took through the progression of the pics. Any tips on tinning and soldering would be helpful:P. and yes i know the blue heat shrink didnt shrink enough around the red/black wires.

Well I finally found some time to build myself something I had been planning to.
This is a first try so forgive me the looks (its Ugly ) but it has a small footprint and that was my aim.
I wanted to keep the locking mechanism working so I could not go smaller then 2cm.
