have the koreans made an ugly board?
geez, everything that comes out of OTD (custom wise) is awesome.
are they using paracord? i want to try this out to continue working on my soldering.
While it COULD be paracord, I think it's a much better chance it's normal nylon sleeving. For one cable, I used a shoelace, which also worked out well. Also, look up "techflex". I don't like it as much, but if you get a contrasting colour to your cable, you can get really neat effects.
@Ripster: I don't buy canare connectors anymore after my F16 broke. I thought it was build like a tank, but the tip has bent, and now shorts out too much. They're also too heavy. I'm more a Neutrik fan, myself. (and maybe Furutek for a 1/4 if I need it, and want to splurge, though Neutrik has some excellent 1/4's)
I still like Canare's L-4E6S (Starquad) as interconnect cable. It's pretty easy to work with, pretty well-made, and cheap. I'm still going to try the Mogami next time, though.

Ugh: Soldering to connectors is much harder for me, but I still don't have a "helping hands" yet. I end up having to chase it around on the table until it sometimes works.
About cable sleeve sizing: keep in mind, you can scrunch it up to a larger diameter pretty easily depending on what type it is.
