let me kick start with some of my recently made cables.

Posted Image
Starquad Hybrid

Posted Image
Cable Surgeon's Floating Silver (ahdui's Mod)

Mod: Originally using Tin shielding as the ground, so I've removed it and use the original cable for all 3paths.
Improvement: the harsh brightness is gone and the sound is more full-bodied.

ahdui's CryoFreeze™ Tcu

I call it Tcu (The Copper) because it is the statement series of my own cable.
This is 1 of cables from the batch of cables I ordered by demand and cryo-treated myself.

Posted Image
ahdui's CryoFreeze™ RBT

RBT is the name and it means Red Blue Transparent. Have no idea for a good name.
This is the other 1 from the batch of cables. I have also made 1 for Kenshin_Himura and 1 for flu_fighter.

As requested by flu_fighter, the mini to RCA version.

Chronicling my journey into DIY line out docks and cables:

Posted Image
My first ever attempt at DIYing, other than the fact that it actually works, super failure attempt.

Posted Image
Second attempt at DIYing: an ultra short mini to mini.

Posted Image
Don't have a picture of it alone and I've given it away but here's my smallest ever DIY line out dock.

From another view!

Did all these a couple months back just for kicks(: pretty fun really
