ah, darn, was hoping for some flat wired ones. oh well, will probably order some other colors from you though anyways. Can't wait to see the color legend so that I don't accidentally get the wrong colors!

Hey, if you want it flat. I'll MAKE it flat I should have all of the samples labeled by the end of the weekend!

so you can make flat cables as well?! if you can make something similar to
Show Image
then you sir, have an order from me like...yesterday!

I know I can get the flat sleeving. I need to check if I can still get the flat cable. I'll let you know by next Tuesday at the latest.

===================================
Update: Completed Cables - shipping tomorrow!

**For those of you who originally ordered carbon fiber, I have gotten with most of you and have ordered new sleeves, or whatever we worked out! Thank you to everyone who ordered a cable and being patient with me during this process!

Once, again thank you to everyone. Without geekhack this wouldn't have been possible. 100% made from my next cable sold will go to geekhack!

Cheers!

Looking good, MM. I'll be down for a few cables later on. Especically once you have the sleeving color/codes labeled.

^It does look a little peachy. But it's just standard orange. If you're looking for a bright orange, I would have to get a neon orange.

Happen to have any samples/pics of the neon orange heat shrink?

Or a vendor site that sources it?

^ I do not have any samples, but I would get it from frozencpu

I like MiMiC Cables. Nice name.

Indeed........good to know you now have a trade name on here.

You should also draw up a small logo to place on your cables, just to give that unique exclusivity of ownership/branding for your work.

Sinzz · « **Reply #173 on:** Fri, 05 October 2012, 00:54:56 »

hmmm after really thinking about it, my keyboard cant even fit a flat wire into the nook. well then, guess I shall purchase me a wire soon.

Capitalistix · « **Reply #174 on:** Fri, 05 October 2012, 16:15:58 »

These are insanely awesome and I will be ordering one or two from you very soon! Excellent looking craftmanship, damn.

TheProfosist · « **Reply #175 on:** Sat, 06 October 2012, 15:37:27 »

mistakemistake · « **Reply #176 on:** Sat, 06 October 2012, 18:32:18 »

I am working on a two piece cable. I'm pretty excited and will probably post pictures mid next week.

two piece cable? for filco? That would be pretty much amazing my Phantom use the same case would this allow the cable to be detachable? If so please hold off on 2 of my cables id be interested in a 2 piece cable for them.

tjcaustin · « **Reply #178 on:** Sat, 06 October 2012, 18:45:16 »

I already ordered a blue cable, but now I want a superhero or orange one.

Looking forward to seeing pics of finished cables.
GL SIR!!!

SmallFry · « **Reply #182 on:** Sun, 07 October 2012, 23:02:48 »

I like the new OP! Too poor to order a cable, so eventually I'll make my own!

mistakemistake · « **Reply #183 on:** Sun, 07 October 2012, 23:04:53 »

Aw, well stay tuned for giveaways! Also, I hope within the next two weeks I'll be able to offer a DIY kit as requested.

SmallFry · « **Reply #184 on:** Sun, 07 October 2012, 23:06:15 »

Ooh! The one thing I requested and the other I dreamed (not really)! Thanks for the heads up!

wiredPANDA · « **Reply #185 on:** Mon, 08 October 2012, 00:39:48 »

TheProfosist · « **Reply #186 on:** Mon, 08 October 2012, 00:52:27 »

I like the op as well did a great job making it easier for others to pic out their cables. O and btw aramid armour FTW!

danielucf · « **Reply #187 on:** Mon, 08 October 2012, 11:42:04 »

Looking good, very excited for DIY cable, and will order a regular cable in the future.

How's the Filco coming along?

mistakemistake · « **Reply #189 on:** Mon, 08 October 2012, 13:34:16 »

I should have a demo on my poker (will remove the pcb usb and solder straight to the board) by Wednesday. Just waiting on a few parts.

Very much interested in one of these cables as well, I'd buy a couple if they were under 15.

mistakemistake · « **Reply #192 on:** Mon, 08 October 2012, 14:11:58 »

I am working on getting flat ribbon wire right now to make the flat sleeved USB cables. As for price I'm not sure if I can get down to that price with all of the materials used :/

Glissant · « **Reply #193 on:** Mon, 08 October 2012, 14:24:27 »

Oh oh oh flat cable. So very interested in that. Not those colors though xD.

ekw808 · « **Reply #194 on:** Mon, 08 October 2012, 14:27:19 »

I was reading up on those LaCie cables in the picture, and while they were only 10-12 dollars each, but the quality was not 100% there, so as long as the price is backed by the quality I would definitely consider purchasing one from you, I would also like to think these are 6ft as well? would they be cheaper if smaller?

As for quality I definitely use higher quality parts from the bulk cable itself to the connectors. As for quality of work, I can post a few pictures of the basic tinning of wires and soldering to connectors if you'd like.

Since the flat cables require a flat ribbon cable instead of bulk wire, I can't promise a price quite yet. Sleeving for the flat cables will be from MDPC and limited to those colors only. Lead time for the flat cables may be a little longer since they're coming from overseas.

Hey, Profosist. I see you around often (I assume a lot of people do with over 3000 posts). I always see your custom title, and it irks me just a bit... I'm not sure if it's intentional, but shouldn't there be an S in there somewhere?

possibly lol i wonder how long its been that way i thought you were going to say something else about non standard layouts
