That is some really nice looking techflex you've all got. Where does it come from?

Smile My Digital Interconnect

I've been a lurker for a week now, and got around to registering today. This cable links my DVD player to my processor in my home theater.

It's the first one I've made that I actually like :allteeth: The sound is great - credit to Jon Risch' marvellous webpages for the recipe.





Cable is 1695A from Belden, flex and shrink from cableorganizer, bullets from a mate. Made with 63/37 "44" Kester solder. Cost me less than 12US to build this, most of which was the cost of the bullets.
Regards to all,
Paul.

Those cables are gorgeous. What kind of sleeving is it?

Talking Look for 'techflex' braided sleeving on Google

I get mine, a derivitive of techflex, from cableorganizer.com, other suppliers are Parts Express, RS Components, etc. My cable has two layers of flex for added durability and it looks better, too!

Regards
Paul.

I actually found your thread after my first attempt, it's very well made. I can totally relate to soldering the plug onto the wires and forgeting to put the back piece on. It totally sucks!!!
