RnB180, do you do anything but make cables all day long? How long have you been doing this?

Also, I need a multimeter as I am looking to begin building my own cables. I am in very poor student mode now (I really need to stop after I finish this last degree) and see them for as little as $16 (US) at Wal-mart. Would this be sufficient? What is the cheapest one I could by that would work for cable testing and maybe a little light amp manufacturing?

Thanks and Prost!

I dunno, I guess one with a continuity or resitance check would do.

I dont make cables all day, I just bought a roll of silver copper solid core teflon wire, some plugs from partsexpress and some surplus flexing and heat shrink I had prior.

and began to make them for fun, I dont even need any of these, probably the only one I need is the headphone extension. but all the others are just made for fun.

neutrik is on www.partsexpress.com

silver ofc is on ebay, just run a search for "silver teflon", you would probably want 20-24awg

i thought some of you cable guys might be interested in this little connector i picked up today


nice and small, very sleek looking, and looks easy to work with, we'll find out soon. the best bit was it cost less then half the price of the neutrik np3c in oz

according to amphenol australia's website it's also available in black and black w/gold although they didnt have any in stock at my store just then.
