    Scratch the above post -

    I will continue to add quantity to this as I figure the build time will be very low...

    Also, if you get 4 - the 4th one will be $30.00 because at that point shipping will not increase.

    Paypal and PM sent.
    So, are you willing to put forth a little effort or are you happy sitting in your skeptical poo pile?

    So far I am up to 12 cables -- so wow, I am amazed at the turn out of who wants power cables, hahahaha...

    So yeah - since I have already ordered supplies for MY cables, as it rolls in I am going to go ahead and do what I can with the lengths I have already cut.... and send them out to who I can.

    Everyone else will just have to wait for round 2 of runs.

    I can't promise those who paid first will get their cables first just because I have already cut the cable to the lengths that I needed -- so, bare with me.

    Again, I am open to taking more request - so if VC and Nooshin go with it that would be three more which would put me up to 15, which is cool - if I can get to 20 that would be awesome... might even be able to get a further discount on the raw materials and possibly be able to send a few bucks back, but no garuntee!

    Let me know folks! Let me know!

    I have received everything I need for the first batch but the connectors and some .8" heat shrink...

    Honestly I think the heat shrink may hold me up the longest on the first batch so everyone bare with me! :)

    Alright here is the first try at these...

    I might keep this one for myself as the wall end is not the prettiest as I used multiple pieces of heatshrink...

    On the IEC end I used one.

    So anyways - look at the IEC end to see what the final product will be.

    Scratch that - I removed the heatshrink and applied a new section.

    Looks great! :)

    I am going to run every cable for atleast 2 days before shipping --

    There will be one exception, ungrounded cables will be plugged in to test connection but will not be ran for more than a few minutes...

    Sorry - but all of my gear is grounded.

    Following cables will be going out today -

    Kevin, Harry, Michael, Paul, Brock, Gary

    Note - the heatshrink on the connector ends may show stretch marks from shipping... I cant really avoid this - the material is very thick and can endure quite a bit but since it is so thick it shows grey abrasions like this.

    Thank you all for understanding - and everyone elses cables will go out ASAP***************

    These cables fit best with the material I had on hand. Thank you

    The pix look good.
    I am anxious to try them out and compare them to some of the power cables I already own (one SC, one cable that I made myself, and a stock cable). I think it will be interesting to do a PC shootout.

    Trey, if you don't mind, I'd like to post my findings here once I test them all?

    Thats cool.

    I ran them throughout my system here and honestly didnt notice any decrease in anything from the MIT cables that were in their place -- except maybe a slightly higher noise floor - but then again you are talking "Make a power cable as cheap as possible" and $700.00 bucks lol

    I am waiting on the second batch of connectors and ferrites...

    So - I will take a shot in the dark of 2 weeks...

    I can crank out one cable in about 45 minutes so it does not take me too long...

    There was a note from DHL and Fedex today - so both parts are "here" - I should have them in possession by this weekend....

    If that is the case - the remaining cable will ship out Tuesday

    Hey Gents,
    All parts are here to make the remaining cables.

    I was called in last minute for tomorrow to install new servers at one of my locations before Christmas gets here. So -- while the cables may not go out immediately this Tuesday it will go out shortly there after. While maybe still Tuesday - just a FWIW.

    I appreciate everyones patience.

    Brock! Glad you like the cable.
