Scotch tape (duct tape is in the car) and a razor blade go a long way

Did it work well? And do you think it matters how many strips you slice it into?

I did old ATA33 cable, I did it is strips of 4....



I didn't have probles with them @ all...

I just don't wanna slice up a ATA100 cable yet

silly me should have searched on google first, yea it actually does matter you should cut it in even strips like of four or 8 anything that can divide 80 or 40... in any case apparently there are sites that show this being done :(

I still think my cable looks cooler and rounder cause the other places all use twisties or zip ties

Hmmm... I am thinking that electrical tape would be my tape of choice. It is really good a wrapping things.
