Funnily enough when the proper wiremen installed a desk at our place they'd slip all the wires into one big sleeve and cable tie it; murders when we used to have to remove a component:mad:Quote:

Staples work fine but if you haven't used the real Molex tool then you're missing out. The Molex pin remover effortlessly removes the pins, easier than all others.
split loom? I've used that before, easy as pie to work with...if you have the proper toolQuote:

It seems the bandwidth gets exceeded for the pics later in the month ... maybe we can come up with a way to help Dangal's out with an alternate hosting site. His call.
In progress... :up:Quote:

P.S. yes, I know my sensor needs a clean.
Great guide and thanks for getting the pics back up, going to try my first sleeving job this weekend and this thread has been a tremendous help! :up:

EDIT:
Here's something I've found works for me quite well - a pair of self-closing tweezers to keep the sleeve in place while you sort out the heatshrink:

The result:

Here's my first try on PSU sleeving. I first had to open up the PSU and remove the horrible, horrible sleeving that was already there (Etasis ET750). I really need to practice getting this heatshrink consistent. Probably gonna redo these:

I'm afraid that I may have gone a bit overboard with the heatgun on the first 2 wires - has anyone had any problems with voltages after sleeving? It's not like I melted the wires or anything (I hope), just kept the heatgun pointed at the pin for what I think might have been too long...

w0000t - Ferhan is in the house!!!!!!!!! LOVE!
Nah, the heatshrink hasn't melted, I'm just being paranoid and wondering. It is really heavy-duty heatshrink, though - 4:1 ratio 6mm glue-lined. Works great for fans, etc. (see previous pictures) but I'm gonna have go and buy some non-glue-lined 3:1 4mm for the ATX and EPS connectors - this current stuff is so thick when shrunk that I had to trim it thinner just to get the pin back into the connector, and that's still with only heatshrinking up to the end of visible plastic on the cable!Quote:
