This was a test runs,
I've never before made sleeved cables of any kind.

Image

The sleeving of the 3 fan extension cables seen in these images.
Took me a nearly 4 hours to complete.

Image

The most difficult part,
was extracting the necessary pins from their connectors,
then putting them back in place.

Image

All in all,
for my first attempt at cable sleeving.
I feel that they came out much better than I expected.

Image

I also took all the photos.
I'm not a photographer,
don't no all that much about taking good pictures.
I used Gimp for White Balance and a little Color Curves.
