Do you have an idea of when you are going to start taking custom orders again?

Never :(

Too much trouble TBH. Its hard to get things in small quantities. Also it is very time consuming around an hour per cable, so after supplies and shipping its about minimum wage lol. I am working through the supplies that I have left and after that I am not sure what my plan is :P

Why don't you just up the price?

I thought about that, but I doubt people will actually pay $40 - 50 for a cable. I guess if I was to get into audiophile cables then it might be worth it, but that would require even more expensive materials and different techniques and more time etc....

Do it on a custom basis.  Payment up front so you are not wasting your time.

People were paying I think 30+ Euros at Deskthority for custom cables that is $35+ for a cable. I think people would pay it, especially if you did custom orders again at a premium.

looking out for the august batch, would like something orange/grey if possible! 

Can you do angled USB connectors?  i.e. out of Pure to the left and out of usb port to the left ?

Angled cables can be done very easily, but I don't see the point so I don't do it lol. I have had this discussion several times with people. I guess I may have to make them sooner or later since folks keep requesting them.

^That's correct GMC.  Pokers, Pures, Leopolds, HHKBs and CM Storms all take USB Mini-B.

Also, you can get rid of that silly signature of yours by going into the Tapatalk settings =)
