Re: How to wire unrealistically well?

So these pictures of nicely routed wires are missing a key item.

Cable labels. It's nice for you that wire a robot once and then never need to remove components, unfasten wires, etc.

Cable labels can save the day! I've used the lables that roll around the cable, they come 0-9 and A-Z.

In a more perfect world cables get double labled

]] this end / the other end ------------------------- the othe end / this end [[

(Art has sketching skills, I don't )

This allows you to take the device off and know where the now dangling end goes, or lets you do a traceback through that nice neat bundle of ziptied cables go.
