Joanne Posted September 10, 2014 Author Posted September 10, 2014 Gonna go and get the 3m red cables and put the box under my desk maybe... once I turf out these ipads!!!
AMLinington Posted September 10, 2014 Posted September 10, 2014 awesome. I'm wondering how I can do the hammock without anyone noticing... I don't think it would go down too well!! They're really easy. Look up 'how to make a paracord Hammock' - most of it is done hung on the wall which you could easily get away with by explaining that you're straightening the cables to make the intertubes go faster. 1
Joanne Posted September 10, 2014 Author Posted September 10, 2014 facinating.... I loves da intertubes!!! I've made a start. I'm no expert in weaving though. Over under, over under, under over... no wait....

That would totally work.
mtillbrook Posted September 16, 2014 Posted September 16, 2014 scrap! We take our excess to a scrap yard. The cost of copper is high at the moment so you will get a resonable sum of money for not a lot of copper cable! 1
LosOjos Posted September 17, 2014 Posted September 17, 2014 Less creative but more practical: donate some to an electronics teacher? The cables inside CAT5 leads are great signal wires... not as fun as some of the ideas above mind! 1
Joanne Posted September 17, 2014 Author Posted September 17, 2014 There are no electronics teachers I know to donate to... (I'm in a primary). I am in the process of the hammock.... very slow mind, I don't want to get busted! I'll post a picture later on when it is quieter around my office! 1
witch Posted September 17, 2014 Posted September 17, 2014 I wish you were nearer - I could do with some medium length cables. All mine are very short or ridiculously long, usually with the clips broken off the end. I keep meaning to re-do the connectors but never actually get round to it . Can't wait to see the hammock
Oaktech Posted September 17, 2014 Posted September 17, 2014 OMG... wish they were in those colours. I have a majority of red and grey! Whats wrong with red, everyone loves a redhead... 1
Joanne Posted September 17, 2014 Author Posted September 17, 2014 I just prefer luminous! Hahahah! Just gonna be clear though... these are not clean enough to be weaving through hair. Ew.

Tesla Posted September 17, 2014 Posted September 17, 2014 A few months ago one of the classes was doing a "who done it" murder mystery type event, i managed to strangle someone i didnt like with an ethernet cable, and i wasn't found out....just saying..
