First ever sleeving attempt.

Hey guys, I've just finished sleeving my first ever cable. I was hoping that you could tell me how you think I did and what I can improve on.

 

I used a heatshrinkless paracord method that I learned from Lutro0 customs.

 

The quality of the pictures isn't brilliant as my camera is pretty bad, but I did the best that I could.

One tip that I suggest, when you do put the sleeves on, keep the cable really clean at the plug and then bunch up the crossing over cables at the point you plug it into the PSU, you can do this now, it'll just look better and cleaner, other than that, very good job, nicely done, I really like the two black cables giving it a contrast.

Thanks a lot guys. I'm planning on cleaning them up a bit before putting them in my build. Just waiting for my new motherboard to come. 

 

I also found out that the connector on the end gets pretty bloody hot.

I assume you mean heatshrink. If you watch the video in my first post, you'll see that it doesn't need heatshrink. I personally prefer how it looks without it.

Thank you. I'm having a little trouble with some double wires, but I'm planning on using your method to deal with that.
