Quoted from oldschoolbob:I thought about making a set of cables with connectors on both ends but the thought of making 64 crimp connectors kills that idea.
I did this for a couple stern machines. Made up all the wires first then did all the insertions. Used 2 different length connectors and swapped them on the other end IIRC and wire tied the wiring to keep it neat. It helped that I had a Knepx wire stripper though, that made short work of prepping the wires.
Reminded me of the crazy stuff we used to do when I was into building PCs, even though I didn't have a windowed case I still split the ribbon cables and 'stacked' them so they 'looked' nice.
What a waste of time and money!
