Not easy to stuff those thick ends into the connector. Btw bro curious ur weave heatshrink can be used on MDPC sleeve or not? This post has been edited by owikh84: Jun 7 2011, 01:57 PM

@owi i didn't get this from niclas. and not using any heatshrink either. this is coldzero sleeving. it's freaking small. requires a lot of patience just to insert the wires into the sleeves. crimping also another pita. the learning curve is about 2 hours  a lot of patience, and mistakes required. the sleeves are small enough that you can sleeve the usual mdpc way and have the sleeve + heatshrink in the connector. but because the sleeves are so small and tight, it's pretty hard to push the wires + metal contactor into it. moar pictars.    haven't finished my sleeving works yet. waiting for some sata stuffs from niclas. will post the completed work once it's finished.

anyone provide sleeving service for psu? i don't mind to pay them for the help.
i'm using an old FSP 700W modular psu with fixed cables. meaning to say, they're not detachable as today's psu. so, it's kinda cluttered with all the cables.

you get what you pay for. the cost of sleeving the wires yourself might be more expensive than just buying it from niclas. i bought some custom length sleeved cables from niclas before, best workmanship in this forum i must say.

I strongly agree with u coz i also got one extension cable sleeved by niclas as well and i reallly love it. I challenged myself to beat or at least match his workmanship but couldnt make it lol. Think i need more practices. Jz grabbed several cable stuffs from niclas today want ti make fan Y splitters for GTs.
