Just made a 30m Optical HDMI and CAT 6 cable reel using this stuff. Took me about 2 hours, but I managed to get it all on.

oh so that's how you are meant to use it. i actually tied the ends of the sleeve and put the knot inside the sleeve. it was difficult but it worked :D

Chicane - Saltwater is the music. Haven't heard that in a long time. Anyways, excellent tutorial.

Awesome! I used a soldering iron and works great as well

They make a braided sleeve cutter. It cuts the sleeving by passing the sleeving over a thin heated metal plate. The metal plate melts the ends together to keep them from fraying. It's a lot quicker that having to use a torch to melt the ends. Now, when you feed the wires through the sleeving you don't want the ends of the wires stripped yet because it will fray the stranded wires as they get caught on the mesh openings. What I have done is make a tube that is cone-shaped on one end and has a bottom hole on the other that is just big enough to insert your lead wires. (Looks like a long shell casing) In my case it is 5 wires. Place the tube over the wires until they hit the bottom of the hole. Then just push the tube and wires through the sleeving. You still have to expand and contract the sleeving like in the video to actually feed the wires all the way through the sleeving.

Perfect. Thank you.

exactly what i was looking for, thank you sir

Just what I needed, working out SOME CABLE MANAGMENT in the studio

Just incredibly useful. Thank you sir.

Dude thank you! Just started using PET and the fraying ends are driving me nuts. Will definetly heat the ends before I go trying to push my wire through

I’m Making a mk3 emperor guard at the moment! Thanks for making these vids there helping me out a ton double checking stuff etc 😁

much easier way is to use a stiff steel or copper wire, bend the end 180deg, so you have a round head, put it through the sleeve untill it comes out of the other end, tape all wires on the stiff wire, make the connection smooth, no sharp edges, and pull the whole damn thing through the sleeve. Takes only 2 minutes, no mater how long the sleeve is

Hahaha how did I not think of that?! Thank you!!😂

Thanks for the tips.

Great video. Ive ordered some 5mm braid for 4mm (12gauge) speaker wire. Hoping this will be enough taking into account the poly transparent sheathing. Im also hoping a hair dryer will do the job for the heat shrink.

I have a problem and i need help i have a olive green braid military grade from helicopter harness i got about 20 meters of it and i made bracelets and keychains from this and to my horror it dosen't burn with the lighter it is not elastic and it dosen't melt i kept the lighter on it for two minutes and it finaly blackened hardened and crumbled in my fingers after i pinch it hard i believe it is not nylon or polyester it could be asbestos?? Please help me

Do you know why a light fixture came with a 2 inch white braided sleeve?

Will heat from a hair dryer be enough for the heat shrink tubing pieces?

cool. thanks

Which Braided Sleeving is good for everyday uses? I want to use it on my earphones wire.

please no music just instructions, background is not needed.
