Hi guys,
Out of bordeom, i have decided to custom make my own cables and have the necessary tools to do so however have come across an issue.
In general, what size PET sleeving should be used for the ATX/PCIe/EPS cables? I purchased both 18awg and 16awg wires to compare which one would look nicer, together with 4mm sleeving, and while the sleeving fits both wires, am having trouble inserting them into a bunch of cable combs i have.
I have the following cable combs (no note on the description upon purchase as to what maximum wire guage to be used or max sleeve size):
https://ibb.co/zGq3BM2
Techflex from OCUK
Knuckle Combs from another supplier
Flat combs from another supplier
Most sleeving by MDPC-X small
For the cable combs, either:
the combs can only fit 18awg max and 4mm sleeve
The sleeving i purchased is the incorrect isze.. 3mm perhaps i don't know to allow 16awg
Am i missing something or, are there no nice looking combs for 16awg wire?
