Hi
How do you manage braiding long cables (more than a metre or two)? I keep loosing my nerves with juggling all the wire spools and jumbling up all the wires.

Play out the length you need then fix the spool end and braid from there.
Then measure the extra that you need for length and play out more from the spool and finish the braid in that direction.
So you're not moving the spools but the loose ends? Sound's like even more potential for entanglement... I am simply not made for this.
Are you braiding for characteristics or just to keep them together?
We use (what we call) expando.

Could someone suggest how braiding cables (other than to keep related cables in the same cableform, for convenience in wiring/debugging a large system) achieves anything? My understanding is that cables carrying different signals should not be braided (unless already well screened and/or twisted) while cables carrying the same signal in antiphase should be twisted. I suppose braiding cables carrying the same signal in phase achieve some tidiness.
