I don't think I properly understand what exactly you mean by "crossing the individual strands..."

Weaved or braided together, instead of just twisting the bundle of wires in a circular motion..

That seems so obvious, but I always assumed that wouldn't work unless you had 3 or more wires to lock the braid/weave in place. I'll need to test this out with some of my left over wire pieces.

He weaved or braided the 4 cores up to the split and twisted from the split to the ends.

I didn't like the brushed look on the splitter and 3.5mm connector. Solved it with some heat shrink.

It's hard to see in both pictures, as it is clear but I did add a chin slider.

Ok, then I question how to keep the 2 wire twists from just untwisting themselves.

When you only twist them they will always untwist themselves in my experience. The trick is to manually cross the individual strands over and over again as if you were braiding them.

Hi all,

Do you remember the wonderful adjustable jacks on the Sennheiser Momentum?
Anyone have an aliexpress link to those? or something on the same principle, adjustable rotation jack. I managed to find only 8 pieces in a package.

Link to the lot:
https://m.aliexpress.com/item/32833056352.html

Also can someone please link some cheap modular jack adapters? The ones where you can screw in different connectors, 2.5 3.5 etc..?

I’m so sorry that I’m posting here. But I’m trying to find out what braid this is. I’ve been searching for flat braid or ribbon braid but to no avail. I remember there was a tutorial stashed here somewhere but I couldn’t for the life of me find it. Would appreciate if someone can point me in the right direction?

Reminds me of this braid I saw on Instructables a while ago - it might work out for you.

I've posted this in the Cosmic Cables thread so hopefully this isn't breaking any rules, if so I'll obviously delete but just wanted to add a few pics to this thread...

Here are a few pics of my latest cable creation - a short-run HD800S cable terminated in Eidolic (both the 4.4mm and the HD800 connectors) with a very supple copper cable which I braided (my first ever 8 wire braid)

Could you please tell me which cable you used?
I've been looking for something like this but I'd like to confirm if I'm going in the right direction.
I found some on Aliexpress like this one https://www.aliexpress.com/item/32864899173.html?spm=2114.12010612.8148356.11.7c613d9dRGoskj but it kinda look like they are aimed for IEMs.
If you have the link from where you bought yours I apreciate it.

---EDIT---

Forget it, I thought you had build your cable.
Sorry
