Some more shinny stuff arrived in the mail today that i will need for the job.
One piece i am worried about is being able to clearly identify each wire. The mess i had before was really hard to work out where everything went because it was thrown together without too much care so if i was going to do it myself i wanted to make sure i didn't repeat others mistakes.
I found whilst different colors helps i wanted to put some
labels on the loom and wires where i believed they are needed and so they are easily identified.
I have a $49 Dymo that we bought ages ago from Officeworks but found that it didn't do the best job, didn't sick down well and stay on as well as the label material choice was limited. Doing a bit of research i found the Dymo (3M) PL200 (Ryno 5200) which was only $194 delivered.
This unit is a industrial label maker used by electrical contractors to label cables and wire. It neat piece of gear and is able to print some pretty cool and specific types of labels on different material types even Heatshrink. The nylon labels can handle 120 deg and wrap easily around wires to clearly identify them so i bought a roll of the Nylon material as well as the roll that comes with the machine.
Here is how it comes in it packaging
