Just looking, I can get 1000ft of 20AWG instrument cable from Parts Express for $280, if I split it 10 ways, 9 other people can get 100ft of cable for about $30 or so (shipping dependent).
If I can get enough people to cover 800ft or so, I'm gonna go for it, let me know if you want multiples (200 ft, 300ft etc.)

Click the poll button then, like in the online stripper game, :-X
Nevermind, just realised if this gets oversubscribed, I need to know who was in first, keep just posting a reply, first come, first served I guess. 600ft left ;)
If we don't get any more response, this ain't gonna happen. Unless you two want to go 300 and 300 ???

Chris, we should look into ordering some bulk cable ends, too, angles/straights, and some proper sized heatshrink. Later on, y'know?

Yeah, guess I'll need em, haha. I used to order a 20 pack from speakerrepair.com for a buck a piece.
We should definitely see whats out there.

That seems okay. I usually use R/A's more but I'm sure there are some of those on there too.

Pancake or box type?

A mixture, the bigguns are nice, the pancakeuns are good for tight boards. I have both issues on my board.
BUY ALL THE ENDS!

yeah, i got pancakes for about a buck a piece. really though, I'd be down for some of all of them, I think.
just don't have as much need for the straight ones but I do like to use them to plug into my guitar and amp.
Well, if we ever get any more people wanting cable, and get this thing rolling, I could add the jacks to the order. $1.33 for the pancakes, $1.24 >10, $0.95 > 100, but if you get them cheaper elsewhere that's cool.
I always found the proplem with pancakes was on recessed jacks, like on most amps, where the faceplate is surrounded by the case, or on the backs of speakers where the jacks are recessed to prevent damage. I used to have a massive cable made of 75ohm antenna wire that used pancakes, for some freakish reason. ;D
yeah, i definitely don't see pancakes being usable for much else than pedalboard cable. that's all I used them for.
Unless your pedal has two outs, too close >:(

yeah, actually I had a problem with one of my slim pedals that had the in, out and power tap on top. not cool.
they do save mad space though
Looks like this isn't going to happen, we don't have enough interest :-[
Try expanding into different forums? Harmony Central, Obeliks, noise forum, etc?
I could have used it a couple years ago, before I dropped a bundle on prefab cables :(
cmon i'll double in for 200ft.
I'm in for 100 ft. Could use some ends too- some pancakes for the board (10-12) and a dozen straight.
OK, the total so far:
| DunwichAmps | 100ft |
| Sunn0))) | 200ft |
| grimniggzy | 200ft |
| beerrhino | 100ft |
| the diddler | 100ft |
| Hemisaurus | 200ft |
| James1214 | 100ft |
Fuck you guys.... I'm in.
nice
As a side note I've decided to build a stereo splitter/DIY rick o sound, does anyone have a lead on good stereo cable and Jacks? Or does anyone have any they can sell me?
A 1/4" insert cable would do the job, but you'd be hard pushed to find one long enough.
Hosa does one 13ft long, maybe there are others.

How many/how much we talkin' on ends? I could probably use straight ones and right angles.
depends on how many we order, look at partsexpress.com (http://partsexpress.com) they're around a buck twenty, I think.
damn, most of the right angles are pretty expensive. I may just stick with my normal gls 20 packs off of speakerrepair.com
hey hemi, where do we send our duckets?
Oh wait 'til I get the stuff ordered, and I'll PM you.
just holler
