Hey guys I have been getting into cables lately and I'm curious as to what tools I need to begin building my own. It looks like the cables /connectors/heat shrink can be found in Ali. I can buy heat gun and soldering kit but is there anything else? Are there any beginner videos or guide I can follow?

The Hakko FX-888D soldering station is a good start, it's about 100 euros. Beware, there are many fakes on the net.

A cable tester is better for cables than a multimeter, but if you make headphone or earphone cables they're not so helpful since they don't have 2,5mm or 4,4mm jacks. For 1/4 inch, AES, and RCA connectors, a cable tester is very useful.

Some clamps to hold the work are very useful, you can make them out of wooden clothespins or buy something ready to go. Needle-nose pliers, eye protection (melted solder flies to surprising places), good lighting, are all important.

Thank you very much. This is great info.

First cable build for my HD660s ! Abit tricky at some points and could be a little neater but it works great ! Much better than using the crazy long cable included with the headphones

New cable for my Hifiman Sundara, very happy with the end result
