I build cables and it's truly an art for me. My custom cables are used on many of the biggest movies in the world on the production sound carts the sound mixer uses to record everything. I've also wired full professional camera rigs. I've wired many full cart builds from scratch, meaning every power, RF, timecode, video and analog and digital audio cable in the entire cart was built by my hands. If it connects 2 points, i built it.
I'm going to admit to tooting my own horn here because I've not seen cleaner builds by anyone else. When I begin a build, I plan and visualize the entire setsup and it's organization. It's like a puzzle from the order of operations to the configuration I use based on input from the mixer and gear used. I love it and I approach it as an artist because it truly is. Ive spent many many years learning how to build every single cable you'd ever find on a film set and build them extremely well.
