    In my 30 years of AV work I have over under wrapped about a million cables. There are a couple of details I would like to share here. The tie line, or velcro should be placed only a few inches away from whatever male end you have, especially when the ends are larger ones.But putting the tie line too close to a large ended cable is bad news, the tie line can't get tight, and will surely loosen up! Then size up the last coil (female end) so the ends are facing left and right at the top of the coil. When there is extra cable on the ends they always catch on other cables when pulling out of a pile, or case. My last tip is to do a half knot then bring the tie line around one more time and pull the tie line tight, then tie it up. It takes about 2 seconds longer to un tie, but they almost never loosen up. I'm the guy that won't think twice about re wrapping huge boxes of cable, because I absolutely hate doing installations while people are watching you untangle the stupidly wrapped cables!

    This is how to make a helpful, easy to learn tutorial video. As many others have commented here, it is a very relaxing and reassuringly effective way to learn. More often than not here at “RUclips University” I find myself more frustrated and unsure of implementing and/or mastering techniques of a just watched how-to video simply from the presentation of the host. You should give seminars on tutorial videos! The How-To How-To Masterclass! Thank you!

    Ties at male end, good point. I've thought about color coding lengths with resistor color codes, taping the color codes at the male end would make sense. Long small-gauge power on spool-winders, but it's really a two person task to deploy, but fast and lays flat.

    Excellent advice and very clear.
    I would add a caution to the 'under/over' technique because uncoiling the wrong end can produce a half hitch every second loop.

    • @dfisk79
      @dfisk79 4 года назад +3

      This is why I don't do the "over under" technique on any cables. It's much easier just to twist the cable as you wrap it to avoid kinks. You can still properly unroll the cable this way. The over under is also trying to avoid kinks, but is more complicated.

    I'll give this a 95%. In my shop electrical cable is stored over/over in 5' coils with a tie string, but then no one uses it but me and I never have wire issues. Some of my cable is 15 yrs old. My biggest enemy is rubber rot from all the ozone, and cowboy boots in the studio.

    What is the befit of the underhand step vs. just doing a half turn in the same direction from start to finish?

    • @brucejonsson3149
      @brucejonsson3149 2 года назад

      Each coil in one direction puts a twist in the cable. Over and under puts a twist in one the a twist in the opposite direction that way cable lays flat.

    You Never ever EVER over under a stinger. You would be fired on any larger production. We hate hate hate, people that try to over-under stingers (or singles in NY) or "Extension cords". I promise you, only do over over. For "data cable or audio cable" go for it, over under to your heart's content.

    • @andrewstahelin2220
      @andrewstahelin2220 2 года назад

      @@winterbayuk how the wiring is designed, it naturally has a clockwise direction. Data cable an audio cable however gives you the ability to go over under given the design of the wiring. If you ever take apart a stinger and you actually look at the copper wiring, you'll notice that. On Union productions in New Mexico in New York, I can't speak for California. That is one of the quickest ways to piss off a rigging electric crew or really any electric crew. Over over also gives you the ability to release the cable in a seamless fashion, whereas over under if you needed to toss the cable or something to that nature, you run into the issue of the cables getting tangled during the toss. It's easy to mess up. Over under over is pretty self-explanatory.

      Only potential problem I see is unintended inductivity created by the coiling. But that can happen with any coiling method.

      @ACombineSoldier 5 лет назад

      @john doe I'm saying over over whilst twisting to insure no tangling. If it is over under you have to unravel entire cord. over over you only unravel what you need.
