1st Gen Lunchtable Thread - General Discussion

That was posted by Subie flow but isn't that the main purpose of a WRX or STi, they can be passed off as a daddy or mommy car. Cause that's all they have going for them in my eyes, no other reason to put up with super weak engines and drivetrains other than it can be used as a sensible commuter when necessary.

 

Do you braid like I do? I hook the wire around an eyehook in my shelving and stick the other ends in the drill and twist it up until they're more of a tight bundle.

 

Lots of different states use Yellow fire hydrants. I've seen them in Nevada, Mississippi, etc.

 

AZ uses them primarily and WA does too

 

I'm too OCD for that. I clamp mine is a vice and do it all by hand.

I usually do 3-4 wires so the drill doesn't work too good. The most wires I've done in one braid was six.

 

You’ll make a good mom one day, don’t let anyone tell you different

 

Comes out really nice, my record is 10 though. Then I wrap it in tesa tape. I was remaking a fuel pump and tail light harness for that shitty old ZJ.

 

Totally dependent on GPM and pressure too. I've seen blue ones, red ones, silver ones, purple ones.

 

I'll be honest I'm too lazy to braid automotive harnesses. I just use loom, tape, and zipties because it takes far too long.

Back when I did Arduino and microcontroller projects, I'd be making braided lines to actuators, solenoids, motors, crap like that. The runs aren't as long so it isn't as taxing.

It also uses way more wire than just using it normally.

 

My ex-girlfriend never understood why I was so good at french braiding. I didn't have the heart to tell her it was from braiding wiring harnesses for hours on end.

 

I don't do it for short runs, but this made it so it all fit nicely in the electrical channel that runs front to back on that pile of a car

 

I'm telling you, learn to fishtale and you'll have to have a fishtail of your own to keep from drowning in women

 

Im pretty sure you said this exact something last time we talled about braided wire, like the exact same thing

 

Short runs are the only time I'd consider braiding more than two wires. It really doesn't work as well with larger gauge automotive harnesses either.

I'd be braiding like 26 AWG wires to fit Arduino pins and DuPont connectors. You'd find this stuff in like automation equipment.

 

Probably. It's the only aside I can think of when it comes to braiding wiring harnesses.

Braiding wiring harnesses doesn't come up in conversations very often.

 

Ok Reagan

 

That's Nixon bud
