Hey all, just though I'd share my first attempt at sleeving a power supply. Decided to go the paracord route without heatshrink as it was significantly cheaper (50ft lengths for $5 on ebay + free postage) and still looks good imo. To save on buying tools I just used staples to remove the pins on all cables which actually worked surprisingly well. So far  I've done the four 6+2 pin pci-e connectors, the 8 pin motherboard connector and the 24 pin. I'm not going to bother with the molex/sata connectors as they look alright to begin with and you can't really see them in my rig however I will eventually get around to sleeving fan cables, front panel audio, power and reset etc cables.

 

Anyway, here are some pictures, let me know what you think.

Looks better than what i was able to do, i couldnt get the paracord to stick to the cable without heatshrink.
