Geeze... kicks the hell out of all the kids cable management videos. I mean I appreciate all of them but this is some OG bad assery. It's just talent. Simple too. Looks great.

I saw a bunch of "how to hide wires and cables" and this one is, by far, the simpler, easy and cheapest one. Awsome! Thanks a lot!

I loved the sped up parts for showing the steps, great video, fun to watch!

WOW!. Best DIY video in the history of DIY, so easy cheap and efficient, thank you!!

I have that exact same desk and love it. I didn’t know more of them were out there. Very cool. 😊

Great video. Cord clutter is best when it is out of sight. Thanks. PVC pipe is great! You have a great site.

AWESOMENESS!!! Worked better than expected! Thank You!

Excellent, I even have a bunch of that black plastic tubing kicking around.

DUDE!! you know you've just solved a complex issue?!? I was looking at premade solutions but they all seem so expensive for what it is.. thanks, you are da man!!

The great thing about this solution, is when you have to move something, you don't have to spend 10 minutes undoing all the Velcro loops or peeling back tons of plastic tabs or cutting a ton of plastic zippy-ties. A lot of solutions have the problem of when you have to modify it later. Thanks for a cool solution.

It's an easiest way to do cable tray and I think cheapest as well. Thanks for sharing.

That is brilliant...on my way to the hardware store now. Thank you for sharing!!!

Love the pvc idea. Cool thing is you can make them different sizes and diameters.

you can use rubber hose also from the hardware store not sure which is cheaper. But its up to you price vs labor etc. and you can use hot glue instead. Thank you for the ideas.

I have an open desk setup underneath my custom build and this is cheap and can be hidden easily with 2-4in panels screwed to the bottom of my desk.

Cool intro!

Thx for help!!Nice Video🖒

A tip for those that have ever tried mounting surge protectors. Take a piece of tape take one large strip hole to hole. Poke out the holes in the tape with it mounted on the surge protector and then like magic you have exact cutout hole length without having to worry about all the measuring. This isn't an original idea you can find plenty of videos on this technique. Chris made it look too easy though haha

Brilliant

thanks

Good tips, tanks.One thought, tho: zip ties for cables are not a good solution IMO, since you need to cut them if you want to make adjustments by after. And you eventually throw it away, which is bad for your wallet and for the environment. . Rubber bands can do a good job, or garbage bags ties are also very good, easy to undo and tie again.

@duaynedraffen9319

4 жыл бұрын

Some zip ties are made to be removable. Still, garbage bag ties are a very good idea; rubber bands, not so much. The rubber breaks down over time, and they either come off or become fused on the cables.

Woah. It never occurred to me I could just screw a power bar to my desk. This coming from someone who's screwed a few into the wall.

Very creative intro

Instead of drilling screws into the underside of your desk for the power strip you can also attach it with Two Velcro strips and then it will be even easier to remove and put back when you need it.

the drilling and sawing is just a bit too much for my taste but I like the power strip idea!

Will pvc work for this?

Ya gotta take simple out the title...the tools...dude!

Thanks

Could you please suggest a way of mounting the power bar without using screws?I don't want to ruin my desk

Love this ingenious solution. A small improvement I could suggest is to use one-wrap velcro tape rather than zip ties. The velcro tape has hooks on one side of the tape and loops on the other, so that when you wrap it, it simply sticks to itself at whatever place it touches itself. This allows you to open and close the band without having to replace the wrapper. It's sold on Amazon under Self-wrap Velcro; its Velcro brand: www.amazon.ca/Velcro-Brand-Fasteners-Double-Sided-Multi-Purpose/dp/B000078CUB Empty toilet paper rolls are also good for holding electrical cords wrapped together; you just wind your cord, then slide the empty toilet paper roll over the unplugged end of the cord and then over the wound cord. Then plug your cord in. If, at some point you require more length to your cord, you can usually sneak the next loop (or more)of cord out of the cardboard roll, without having to unplug the cord.

wow finally a decent solution!

Freaking genius!

I was with you until you broke out the power tools.

Do u drill the desk to put ur screws in

@chrisnotap

6 жыл бұрын

Yes.

Great ideas, my computer desk is a snake pit of wires. For those without electrical tools, there is always the old fashion idea of cutting the pipe with a hand saw. As for the holes you can always use your imagination and perhaps heating up a screwdriver and using it to create screw holes would work. Unless you have an appalling lack of creativity, it shouldn't be too hard to improvise. If you are anywhere near a hardware store or even a wally world, surely you can save up your change for some simple tools. Even a electric drill is relatively cheap and isn't that much of a drain on most people's budgets. Come on people the guy is presenting ideas that most people can do. So easy to be critical, so hard to show appreciation for an idea without complaint. Why is that?

You can just use a empty tape..
