So please point me in the direction of a good tool/price thank you
Hey Charmz, I don't see a sleeving kit in what you're linking to. You could go the route that GavX is suggesting. I just wanted to let you know that you don't really need special tools for the job (I used a small eyeglasses/Jeweler screwdriver for most of the pins and a filed down bobbypin for the ATX & pcie power stuff) I'm not sure what you mean by individual wrap and sleeving a group. If you want to sleeve individual wires, you're gonna need more of the small sizes than a kit provides, so you might want to get a kit, and then order a bunch of extra smallest sized sleeves. Once I get my photobucket sorted, you can check out some of my sleeving to see what I mean, as I took a bunch of pics of the sleeving process, and of my mistakes to learn from! (I've had to buy extra, and i'm planning on redoing my PSU sleeving just cause it looks kinda crappy.) Oh yeah, and there are TONS of good examples of wire management here to look at. Use the search. Read some project logs. Also Million Dollar PCs gets linked to a lot for some odd reason.
sounds good modminded looking forward to your pictures EDIT: that kit is in euros so if i can use things like staples and stuff tha will be betterthan waistig 5-10$ of tools
Pics are back up, you can check out the first post and use the links there to navigate some. (not that I'm an expert sleever, as you will find out.) Also, have you checked out the Stickies? http://forums.bit-tech.net/showthread.php?t=140973 Here's the perfect thread for your situation: http://forums.bit-tech.net/showthread.php?t=47415
