we used it in 2009 and ordered extra to cut to length (built 4 duplicate robots that year that were all a little off from each other). to hold them together we welded them with a lighter and then used a sander to shave off the excess bumps that formed from pressing the two ends together. if you go with welding the ends let the cord sit for a couple hours after heating to let it fully set.
the extra was used to whip the engineer in charge of designing the robot because of how much "fun" it was to put on the robot.
