Wire Grooming
String ties
- if you really want to impress the judges
Tie-wraps
- easy to use, easy to change
- you need about 2000 (1800 end up in the garbage)
Cushion clamps
- Used to secure wiring bundles and prevent chafing
Split tubing
- split polyethylene tubing lengthwise and glue onto sharp edges to prevent chafing.
Coax
- do not clamp tightly, it will affect the performance of the cable.
Wire marking (if you don’t own a $3000 marking machine)
- buy fabric label strips from www.steinair.com
- wire marking is a pain, but well worth it later on.
