Bottle Posted January 26, 2015 Share Posted January 26, 2015 [quote name='icastle' timestamp='1416791675' post='2613691'] I use one of those Dymo label printers and a piece of clear shrink sleeve over the top of it to stop the label from getting worn\peeling off. [/quote] Exactly what I was going to suggest - I do that with all my special cables (i.e expensive starquad Mic cables etc). A roll of clear heatshrink will probably set you back a tenner from RS/Farnell (more if you go to Maplins etc). Only really feasible if you're making cables up. Much harder to do with pre-assembled cables. The other suggestion is to get the plugs with coloured cable reliefs (like Neutrik jack plugs and XLR's). Makes identifying the correct cable in a multi-core soo much easier too (I use the resistor colour code and/or labels and/or engraved plugs too). I roll (and coil) my own Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Count Bassy Posted February 4, 2015 Share Posted February 4, 2015 The label printer and the clear heat shrink for me, complete with phone number! Then coloured cable ties at both ends to identify individual cables. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
