Q: Hi Colin. I love your ‘clinic’. Neil promised that you might be offering education for us novices. So may I ask – have you ever thought about using braided hose to run your interconnects.

I am talking about type usually found as brake lines on motorbikes and car braking systems, i was messing around with my bike when it occurred to me that the brake lines were Teflon tube covered in a tight metal braid and was wondering about using it to run say a 1mm solid silver wire through? I was thinking of making up a full cable but it would be shielded and along with the Mylar/aluminium tape wrapped round the bundle would be double shielded. Any thoughts about it ?
