[esoomenona]

That's great! Is that one for someone or available to buy?

[Paranoid]

It is a custom request for someone but it was something I always wanted to try.
I might make some curly limited editions because I have a limited stock of good curly cables, but that will be for later because I do not have the free time right now

[GoatMaster]

is there an adapter for the cm storm quickfire rpaid?

[numerus]

so lovley  

[Paranoid]

I don't think you need an adapter for a CM QFR. That's just a male mini-usb to usb-a, is it not?

Thanks numerus ^^

[numerus]

I m sry that i dont order now, but i m now on moving in new Flat! next Moth will make orders for 3 Cables

[Paranoid]

Haha no need to apologize congrats on the new flat ^^

And it was my pleasure having you as a client I'm glad you like them! I saw the pictures in the other thread first while looking around ^^ Keeping it standard black on black is pretty slick!

Here is a little something I made over the past days.
Say hello to Mister Curly:

thats so nice. great work indeed. please make more in the future.

All dibses have been noted but in all fairness, esoomenona had the first private dibs 

I only have a few good curled cables for this, and to be honest, it's a pain sleeving these ****ers I will be looking for some other curled cables that I can sleeve with Paracord as well because these are too thick. Let the hunt begin!

Pricing is not fixed yet so I cannot give an estimate right now. It will be a bit more expensive than a regular cable because it's more time consuming at it uses quite a bit of sleeving. And I won't be making a lot of these Else I won't like making cables anymore

Can I be one of the dibs? : p

[Paranoid]

Haha sure A fair warning, this won't be for after a couple of weeks when things calm down for me

[waffochan]

Is it too late to join in on the dibs? o:

[Paranoid]

you can always join the dibs, but I never planned on making that many curled cables ^^ I was thinking around 5 cables but I have 12 interested persons so far
We'll see if I ever get that far

[Sai]

make one for me also pls

[rurushu]

Hi Paranoid, can I join the dibs for the curled sleeved cable??
yours is awesome sick!!!!!! 

[Paranoid]

Lol, I'll add you to "the list" but I don't even know if I'm going to make more than five of these we'll see how well it goes.

So, I've finished the last orders finally. Pics pics pics:





I really like these RCA connectors. I didn't stop until they were identical. They HAD to be perfect

There seems to be a distinct lack of bunnies or bodies of water on those arms, my good man...

YGPM.

[Sai]

i want the curly one.

[Paranoid]

Wow that went a lot faster than I thought

- 1x fullsized Filco, the TKL Filco cable and all the USB cables have been reserved.

Only 2 fullsized Filco cables remain


And the curly cables are fiction at the moment I need a break right now and I'm still waiting on other coiled cables to play with, and I'm restocking as well. So I couldn't make cables if I wanted to ^^

[Wraul]

Today I received some amazing cables from Paranoid.

The quality of the cables is superb.
My photo skills on the other hand, not so much.


It must have been a nightmare to sleeve this cable.


Thank you Paranoid. Enjoy your well earned break.

[Sai]

it was you !!. 
a great cable that curly one is .

[Wraul]

it was you !!.

Guilty as charged
Yes it is really amazing.

I almost feel guilty though, to put Paranoid through the hard work it must have been to sleeve the cable.

[Paranoid]

Thanks for the nice review Wraul I have 12 ppl on the dibs list. I will take no more ^^ it will not be an option and I might not even be able to make one for everyone on the dibs list. I just don't have that many good curled cables
I received some smaller ones this week. But they really are a lot smaller than I thought kinda cute though. I'm going to try them out with Paracord.
And yes, it takes a really long time to sleeve curled cables!

I will be back in business in a few weeks. Still have to receive new components. I have some really cool ideas about making my own USB housings. Let's just say if it works out, I'll be taking this thing to a whole new level ^^

[Sai]

ok !! i hope i am in the dibs list.

[Paranoid]

Yes you are

[kelske]

Rad cables bro, I think I'll order a couple once you get back from your break!

[Paranoid]

Haah it's been a while guys! Taking a break from making cables can feel good for a bit haha I was also a bit fed up that the things that made my cables unique at the time were just being copied by everybody else. I'm talking about which connectors I use and then last thing was the curled cable. So yeah I had enough of that bull**** for a bit. Try coming up with something for yourself instead of just copying.. Sorry for the rant.

So here's a little update on what's coming:

I am going on vacation soon for a couple weeks so it's going to be a bit quiet. After that, somewhere mid July I will be back in business for the cable making! Last one I made was for a Phantom, see pic below.

Now keycap wise I've been making some molds for MX keycaps in Cherry profile but they are not perfect yet so I'm going to make them again so that will be delayed quite a bit.
What I did do is make some ALPS keycaps as you can see below. I'm really pleased with the result.
I'm sorry if the idea reminds you of a clicklack, there's only so much you can do with a simple keycap
The whole mold making process is already going on for some months but I don't have loads of free time and these things take a lot of effort and time to make. Anyways, see pics below for my first series which will be for sale later. I might make some more in the next two weeks. Still experimenting with colors and additives untill I find some cool stuff. So there's that.

So plans for the future, I have some really cool idea's for caps and cables that I cannot share yet but oh boy if I can find the time and means to make it happen (and if it works) that's going to be awesome! Sorry for getting your hopes up if nothing really happens
Besides from that I'll be making some more molded keycaps for ALPS and MX. I will be working on the Esc-row, WASD and arrow cluster. But that requires a lot more molds of course.
Cable business will continue as usual when I get back as I mentioned. I should be fully stocked again by then. I should also have some short and long curbled cables available but I have to contact the dibs list first for that to happen

So that's it for now. Back to normal life and enjoying the weather a bit as long as it lasts Time to take the bike out for a spin!

Have a good evening or day! Talk to you guys later.

[Paranoid]

Now, I was also thinking about making my shop/experience a bit more professional with a new/better name or slogan/whatever and logo or something. I might make this into a contest where the idea that pleases me the most will receive something nice. What do you guys think?

That sounds like a good contest, but I'm bad with the ideas. So good luck to whoever that wins!

[Howler]

I have a CM Storm Trigger, which has a powered USB port. What are the odds that you could make a dual USB cable in one sleeve with them 'breaking' apart ~6" or so from the end. One end would have mini-USB for the keyboard, and the other would have a power plug for the Hub?

I'm envisioning a Y on both ends (one end has 2 USB-A plugs for the PC), all nicely sleeved. I get tired of having to run an extra power supply cable to my keyboard, and the extra 500mA from the USB port should work well.

[Paranoid]

Hi Howler, sorry for the late response! It's possible that I can make something like this. I need to find something proper to place at the Y splitting though. I already have some ideas but haven't tried those out yet. So you want a male mini-usb and male USB-A on one side and two male USB-A connectors on the other side, correct? We can discuss this through PM to not flood the thread Cheers!

And thanks for the continued support deSheol ^^

Boing boing!

Some curled cables popped up 

These are little cute curly cables that I felt like making. They're not very long but they can be expended quite a bit.


This one is sleeved with Paracord Candy Cane with a micro-usb connector. Good for connecting micro-usb devices like your phone for example. The dimensions are about 8cm straight - 11 cm compressed coil - 8cm straight. The coil can extend to about 50cm. Since it's singled sleeved and Paracord it's still pretty bouncy and can return easily into it's curled state.


This one is up for sale for only €30!   


I also made an extra special one! As if the previous wasn't special enough   
This one has double sleeving! That's right people, doublemundoooo (invented word, check!). The first layer is sleeved with Green Paracord and the second one with white MDPC, resulting in a glowing green effect.


It's the same cable as the previous one but since it's double sleeved and has the MDPC it's a little bit more stubborn and thick so in it's natural position it's a bit longer. The dimensions are about 8cm straight - 16 cm compressed coil - 8cm straight. The coil can extend to about 45cm. It still comes back pretty decently but it needs some help for the final centimers 
This one has a Mini-USB connector so you can connect it to your favourite mini-usb devices or even your keyboard.


This fun little cable is up for sale for only €35!    He has found a home!

That's all for now! I also still have two female mini-usb Filco cables left for a fullsized Filco

When will the order form be back available?

[evolyn]

the green one is so nice

[kelske]

These curled cables are so badass! That green one would go prefect with some mint gum

[Paranoid]

Thanks guys the beautiful green one is sold! The curled candycane is still looking for a home

The order form will be back up the 20-21st of July

[Paranoid]

Got some additions to the sleeves. Three extra colors of MDPC and some colored Paracord:


With this and all the components back in stock I could finally make an interesting request for an Ergodox kit:


That's all for now
