Cable Sleeving Guide

[InCredible]

@kwscore - HOW did you do that? :O :O :O

I've allways wanted to sleeve the keyboard usb cable and mouse cable. HOW? :O
Your result looks quite stunning!

take apart the keyboard/mouse and start there..its a very small connector

@Crysis_gamer - thanks for that reply. I've been thinking next time around I should just change the wire colors themselves, but how do you keep track of all the different wires if they are all the same color? Also, are you building extensions for people, or are they the sleeving straight from the PSU?

I've always wondered about extensions as it seems more practical without needing to mod the PSU, but then what do you do with the massive cabling from the PSU, like where do you hide that? It seems the most efficient way is to mod directly the PSU, but then that raises another issue - if you custom length the PSU, what do you do later when you switch cases ? Get a new PSU? Or just do it all over again?

Not all the mouse, keyboard are in the middle small connector
sometimes need to unsolder wires directly to the plate Here begins the stairs because not everyone wants to do it

@The Viking spin the mouse, keyboard and see if the ends are plug-ins if you have a plug that can be easily dismantled to facilitate sleeve

good point..i have all logitech products when it comes to keyboard/mouse and they have all been small plug-ins..so i guess i was just assuming every one did it like this

It was just raining, so I thought I could combine "purple-brain" with some lesson about color and perception. Comparing it with red, makes it better to understand
If the monitor is calibrated somehow "ok", then you will see a strong difference to a pure red.

Nice

We need some purple heatshrink for that beautiful purple sleeving

[nigelke]

purple sleeving this should become standard not special i love it

Xien16: I have my own source for the same sleeving and in hundreds of colors but I need to know the diameter for doing sata cables.

Exact same?

Exact same?

I've been holding myself off from buying some MDPC. Now you show me this. Please have some consideration for people's bank accounts before posting in future

Selling the cheapest sleeves with the best quality made in germany and you sill aren't satisfied

Glad to hear it!

I finally found out how to achieve a better representation for a normal room-light situation ... and not the full-power-photo-light situation which is a little bit uncommon
Then it's like this:

[nigelke]

nice

[dualbrain]

Only dimmed the brightness a little bit and it transformed from studio-light-overkill-light-situation to normal

Excellent guide, I totally screwed up my first psu lol, after applying the heatshrink i couldnt put the cables back in.. grrrr

Im on the verge of ordering a sleeving kit from MDPC (going for a red, black, with a hint of grey theme) to match the ASUS IV Formula.

Cant wait to have a crack at sleeving, hope it goes well as i only settle for perfection. fingers crossed.

Practice on a crappy PSU and using cheap sleeving...

Janik: Really nice pics! The purple is growing on me
