Is anyone a dab-hand and making up cables?
I've just had an exchange with Dave at Green Home Electronics about Black Mamba cables.
Dave used to offer these in custom lengths other than the standard 2.5 meters, but due to health reasons, has had to stop this service.
Does anyone else think they'd be up to the task of terminating the cables?

I daresay I could do that for you.I presume all the necessary bits would come with the cables?

Hi Ali.
Yes they would, though Dave is considering doing it himself. I just wanted to see if there was someone who could have a stab at it in case he wasn't able to.
My skills and tools are more wood work related and it would be silly to buy just for one job (especially as storage space is a premium).
Thanks for the offer, I'll PM you once I know what's happening.

Not familiar with the construction of Black Mamba cables. However if it uses a litz wire configuration ala Cardas, you may need to dip the cables into a specila solution and use their solder flux to terminate them properly
