I’d be interested in a tutorial on this. I’d love to make some cables like this for the home stereo system and AV system.
- Remove the core of your Paracord (you need 1.5x of Paracord to wire length about (depending on wire thickness)
- Sleeve the Paracord over your wire. That’s the hard part. (My trick has been to solder a length of thick magnet wire to one side of the wire and use it as a needle to guide the wire down the sleeve.
- Add all the heat shrinks and connector sleeves you need
- Solder your connectors
- Look at your cable with a smirk
- Take photos of your cables
- Post on Lemmy
- ?
- Profit
I do sell them so yes. There is a some profit, but the margins are slim. I just really enjoy making swag cables.
Do you make any A/V or data cables?
I make 12G 4K BNC cables too as well as focus motor cables. I can make USB cables but haven’t done any yet.
