eh obviously he did bro since he is taking out each ends and in this case even more extreme

he is using custom wires + contacts

i wonder hmm if use gold plated contacts will improve the psu efficiency..

just a thought

I'm not sure about gold contacts, will let nej give his opinion on this. But I was actually referring to the end process of his sleeving, before he slides the contacts back into the brackets, did nej shrink the tube onto the wires 1st or he shrink it after fitting back into the black brackets. Hope i didn't confuse any1 here. I've done sleeving b4 but not mdpc sleeving, too tedious for me. So, in my case, i shrink the tubes onto the wire b4 slotting it back into the brackets.

I think he shrinks the tubes first before slotting them back.

much better quality than before.
ur fren should pay u more than 1k for that sleeve than.  tongue.gif

haha i'll dream about it.

QUOTE(DaRKMiSt @ Mar 21 2011, 06:32 AM)
question:

1. how do you make sure the sleeve/heat shrink length are correct?
2. if wire bend, will the sleeve bend too?
*
Its about experience and a lots of patience to take measurement to making it look nice.

QUOTE(reiben05 @ Mar 23 2011, 12:36 AM)
i still remember my first sleeving rclxms.gif

wasnt as bad as the ones in the first pics shocking.gif .. broken wires?? glued??

maybe just long heatshrinks (smaller ones look better)..

Thanks.

QUOTE(ultimate1 @ Mar 25 2011, 04:14 PM)
nej: Do you shrink the tubes before putting it back into the sockets or after ? I love the consistency of your sleeve. U deserve every bit of your effort, and much more. Thumbs up for good work and excellent consistency.  thumbup.gif  thumbup.gif

Ya, i shrink it before putting it into the molex. smile.gif

QUOTE(cstkl1 @ Mar 25 2011, 05:48 PM)
eh sleeves can stretch dude.

mdpc sleeves are really tight woven. so u can just the right stretch for bending wires

cheaper sleeves tend to over stretch which is y u get that inflated look.

if only somebody knows where they buy the sleeves from

Hmmm... not sure about the efficiency of gold plate contact.
But the old HX1000 was using gold plate contact.

Hi everyone, i'm back with some photo here. wink.gif
I knew that i'm delaying hell lots of time to finish this.
I'm running out of sleeve to continue this project, the last order from nils take about 1 1/2 months to arrive in Malaysia.
And i'm having some issue with the local custom regarding the parcel.
I'm glad that everythings was fine now, and i'm getting back on track. flex.gif

The 24 pins was tougher than my expect, the result are fairly acceptable, so it took me more time to do the revision.
Sleeve and re-sleeve it again and again. cry.gif
Eventhough the result was not MDPC standard but i think it doesn't hurt to show here. laugh.gif

Here is the result, the following photo will showing before and after i re-sleeve the 24pins cable.

This is the result before i re-sleeve the cable.

very nice sleeving skill ah jen. must say that not everyone is able to sleeve as a pro like nej did. the real owner must be smiling wide2 now haha... was wondering whether nils has smaller size than this sleeve or not I think slimmer sleeve could be easier for the heatshrink to fit into the connector.

Bro you mean the whole sleeve going into the connector?
I saw someone at XS did, but he didn't use heatshrink on that method sleeving.
The guy crimp the sleeve together with the wire and push the sleeve into the connector.
