Wow, I now have a newfound appreciation for people who make and sell these. I’m determined to make myself one now! Thank you so much for this easy to understand guide. 10/10.
If anyone tries to build this (READ THIS) When you solder you DO NOT heat the solder and blob it on. That creates a very weak joint and a poor connection. And ups the chances of having cold solder joints too. You ALWAYs heat the part you want to solder to, until its hot enough itself to flow the solder. And pre tinning boths parts (connector and wire) is a good idea. And when you solder them together hold the iron firmly over top the wire with as much also touching the solder point on your connector. And when it dries DO NOT let the joint move and DO NOT blow on it or do anything to try and cool it down faster. These things will create cold solder joints and is a huge offense. Its not a good connection and in the professional world, youd be in big trouble.
For those who are wonderin if this will work with a regular hairdryer, answer is yes but you have to heat it for about an hour or so 😂 made mine today and it comes out perfect! (still depends on the specs of your dryer. The only specs I could find on mine are 220-240v~50-60Hz 1500w. but it does work! give this man a sub, he deserves it)
I started making mine last night, don't have a hairdrayer or heat gun. I wrapped it around a copper tube and threw it in the oven at lowest setting like 225F for an hour. Coil came out super nice even without reverse coiling!
i think it's the best tutorial for this on the web. I think you should put "keyboard" keyword somewhere or even in the title, so that more of the target audience would see this.
@@hkhatri12 not at all, just wondering why it was so hard to find this tutorial so merely made a suggestion. I guess you are saying i was on to something with keywords.
This looks like such an awesome DIY project. This obviously isn't for people who just want a coiled cable or people who are trying to save a buck. It's much easier to buy one and call it a day. This is for people who actually find this kind of stuff fun. I'm all for it.

Also this guys soldering skills need some work. you dont heat the solder and blob it on. You heat the part until it melts the solder. His joints are going to be extremely weak and also not a great connnection. Prob has a few cold joints

@@porkypine602 it's super simple, i took one day to learn tht soldering alone and another to learn solder 2 wires together with internet tutorials, it's not worth buying the soldering iron tin and flux if you're going to use only once tough

Where did you end up buying your type c cables from, can't seem to get the ones he listed in the states and I've tried a few and they're all too thick for paracord sleeving
People, if your going to do this then I have a few comments: 1) If your going to use a paint stripper heat gun then make sure you do not put the cable or heatshrink too close as you will melt the inside of the cable and have potential shorts. Remember that heat gun is designed to heat at extremely hot temperatures to remove paint. 2) The female connector goes on the USB-A connector NOT the USB-C one, the reason for this is because if you have the male pins on the USB-A side and you ever disconnect both halves while it is still plugged in to a power source then you are able to short out the power pins and potentially cause damage to your PC - if - so always have a female on the side that can provide power. 3) It's cheaper to just buy a premade braided cable and coil that than it is to buy the GX-16 connector pair alone. Have fun.
This is the most professional, & educational video. On how to customize your cables. Now I want to try this. But first thing is. I have to build a gaming pc. You sir have a new subscriber. Keep up the great work..
Man, reversing the coil is more difficult than I thought xD It's hard to "wrap" my head around it ;) Thanks for this vid! Managed to make my first cable
Awesome tutorial! I didn't feel like doing the whole GX connector but did have a 10 ft. USB-C cable that was already lined with Paracord. 30 minutes later and I'm now part of that Coiled Cable Club life.

this has to be the most efficient way of making a cable because of the less soldering that has to be done. awsome tutorial i will be trying this soon with a walmart cable
if youre going to use a bulkhead connector, have it come up through the desk! theyre meant for firewalls anyways, so you could have the uncoiled cord running from your PC under the desk then have the plug available right where the coiled part naturally ends
Nice!! finally I found the guide on DIY custom coiled USB cable and after watching this video, I'm straight to the shop and buy new Coiled USB cable. Great video!
It's a really good way to put lots of tear forces on the conductors inside the cable, some of the strands won't break though so the coiled cable will still work for a while.
I don't see why people are all complaining about how difficult it looks.. it's really not so bad. Then again, I sleeve cables for computers on the regular so I guess I'm biased.
This was a very informative video. It was extremely good to see each step slowly and calmly. I also have a minor suggestion. On reversing the coil, you might try a drill. I have seen that technique on an episode of "How's its Made". Thanks again!
Thanks! I did this with the stock braided cable that came with my board (except I didn't put a gx16 connector) and connected it to the usb extension that runs to the back of my monitor
I’d do this but skip the G16 connector. I don’t see a point adding it. I’ll just solder the cable after adding the paracord and call it a day. Keep up the good work!
Comments, suggestion, and tips in improving the build is very much appreciated: 1. not necessary to know the pin config as long as you connect the same color of wire on the same pin number of both male&female connectors. it will only matter (as a standard) when you introduce another end type of USB and you want to reuse it. (ex. USB type A or C source input, with diff outputs: type C, micro, etc.) 2. your soldering iron was too hot on the video that it melted the connector pins plastic inside (it wiggled) 3. I was thinking, when you pulled that inner string of the paracord, you could have taped the wire in it? 4. I am worried about the 4 wires without small shrink tubes at least 2 of the opposite sides 5. that reverse coil is genius!
Thank you very much for the suggestions. :) 1. You are correct, there is really no standard GX16 pin assignment for USB cables, I just decided to follow that pin assignment for USB-A on USB-A connector. But, as you have mentioned, you can pretty much decide on your own pin assignments as long as you matched them on both ends of the connector. 2. My solder is usually set around 300 to 350 deg celsius. 4. Too tight to install heat-shrinks, also since the GX connectors housing has cable clamps, it should hold the wires in place. :) Again, thank you for the suggestions.
The purpose of these connectors is pretty questionable, they're mostly there for the aesthetic, but they also offer some functionality in being able to swap out different connector types and cable colours
tried this with the same mats na asa description maliban sa paracord kaso hindi nagkasya kahit 4mm din lol gonna try againnn this time, pareho na nung paracord sa vid😂 anw, thankyou for this! sobrang helpful
What paracord did you use? Make sure its the Type III 550LBS. :) Also, based sa experience ko, yung 3 meters na Choetech medyo makapal nga siya so tight fit siya sa Paracord, pero kasya naman. :)
Same 550lbs 7 core strands but kinda miss on the type III part HAHAHA nagamit ko pa din naman sya as cable sleeve ng mouse tho tight fit din kaya hindi naman nasayanggg. Gonna try it again hopefully I get it right this timee, thankyouuu!
You can take the yarn core and tie it around/glue it/adhere it to the cable you're trying to pull through, so the sheathing never loses its roundness and makes it easier.

I know this is meant for keeps but I really want to try it for a charging cable for my wife. She goes through em and modding one like this would make it last!
This is awesome I am dying to try it! I'd have to buy a soldering iron, which might be a keyboard modding slippery slope and I'm stoked lol
Big thumbs up for nicely showing the coil reversal :)
