This is different braid from mdpcx, it's thinner but it might still see through the inner wire once u bend the wire a bit. smile.gif
Obviously, it's nice looking thought.

It's very hard to explain here, but 2 things very important.
1st is to do the marking for sleeve onto wire.
2nd is do the marking for heatshrink onto wire also.
And the last is to prepare lots of heatshrink, replace the heatshrink whenever necessary. wink.gif

Never try heat gun before, should do the job so.
But the heatgun need times to heat up right, I'm kind of lazy to wait. tongue.gif

I personally prefer using lighter, not so sure how it compare to hair dryer or heatgun.

lighter is the best imo since it provides the most heat, but u need to be very carefull.. a lil bit exposed too long will fry the wire/sleeve or the heatshrink sweat.gif ..

btw nej how do u capture those beautiful pics.. cant seem to find good lighting/angles for it.. sweat.gif .. mesti confirm guna RM20k punya lense nih..

I'm really not so sure how to shot a good picture, the way i did was shot a lots of pictures and then choose the best few to post. tongue.gif
Be frank, i'm still learning. I'm using Canon 500D DSLR with it's original lens, quite suitable to beginner just like me.
Definitely not kind of 20k lens. sweat.gif
But i can share with you the condition when i'm taking photo.
I always took the photo indoor "actually inside my room", my room using yellow lighting. (i think white color lighting should be better)
That's why you can see most of my photos are a bit yellowish.
I'll always put the item on a white color back ground, and tripod is a MUST.

I think the proper skill on taking photo need explain by real "sifu", i'm just try and error. wink.gif

Hairdryer won't be strong enough. I've explored using lighter, candle, hair dryer and heat gun. The best is using lighter or a heat gun. However a heat gun has it's advantage because even if you over heat it, nothing burns smile.gif If you heat it up too much using a lighter, I'm sure we all know what'll happen.

Perhaps nej is using some special secret lighter. What's the brand? biggrin.gif Come, let's bulk this lighter, haha.

mppc sleeve famous and well known for it high density and color variation... as their heatshrinks, they shrink in thinner diameter compare to other...
