good work guys and really nice photos... has anyone of you done 24pin atx or 8pin eps/pcie with the grey mdcp sleeves? was searching for some photos (finished builds) but couldn't find one (or maybe i'm not searching enough :)). i'm trying to convince myself to get the grey, i like the color but i'm just not sure if it's dark enough so would appreciate if someone can point me to a photo/link. thanks
Does anyone have photo's of SATA Power cables sleeved? I'm trying to see how the push-down method looks with the sleeving and heatshrinking?
Work I did over the weekend. :up:

CaloSIM, those are SATA Data cables. I'm looking for power cables sleeved. :-)

like those?
Yeah, Thanks... Do you have the heatshrink in between the push pins to create the contact with the wire? Or is it before you snapped the protector over the SATA connector?
what on gods green earth did you do to those capacitors??? I like it! wanna do it myself! tell meh your secrets!

See those solid strands? THAT is why I hate Techflex.... look at all the light showing through.
Your clean lines on your heatshrink alignment is sick bro... Nice work
Wow those last few posts were awesome quality (workmanship that is, photography too, but I was referring to the first)
Thanks 3dchipset and DynomiteMat :)
IMO I would use a bit more heatshrink.... it just looks so tiny... maybe 3-4mm more? I guess that adds up over every pin though.
Thanks Nils, it finally arrived :)

gross crys1s gam3r....... you realy raised the bar to high for me!
wel explain to us how do you pull that nice even lenght of that shrink off!!!??? let us in on your secret! lol
Trust me, that heatshrink holds the sleeve secure. :) I heat it extra long (just before it begins to melt), so the sleeve bonds slightly with the wire insulation, and the heatshrink grips it as tightly as possible. 3-4mm extra would look uglier (IMO). No offense :)
Thank you! :) No secret, just LOTS of practice and patience... honestly I went through a good 3/4 of a Family-pack before I could get get it completely even. I'm constantly refining my methods, so if I gave you specific advice now it might be obsolete in a week or two. :D
Do you usually shrink the ends you see first (which would be at the 24/4/6/8 pin connectors)?
I sleeved my hx1000 awhile back, but didn't open it up. I went to sleeve one wire at a time, and I cut all the sleeving close to perfect (since it stretches its hard to cut all exactly same length), but no matter what I did, even if the heatshrink at the end with the connector was the same, the sleeving in the heatshrink at that end wouldn't like up straight.
It looks perfect from a distance, but is far from perfect. Idn, maybe you should do a sleeving tutorial video? Hell, I'm sure you could market it with nils and have him selling it with the sleeving haha
Xien: pure sex (last fan connector pic). :)
kwscore, fresh pictures :D
