I needed a longer VGA cable so I took two leads from old CRT monitors and worked out how they needed to be joined. I then soldered the wires insulating each joint with heatshrink sleeving. A larger diameter sleeve was put over the joints and then for additional protection was wrapped in a tape usually used for sealing antenna cable connections on radio towers. A loop was made and the same tape secured it to prevent straining the soldered joints. June 2017.

An old nearly ATX power supply set up for use as a bench supply. See note on www.ipernity.com/doc/grahamh/23993553/in/album/463841 . This needed a load on the +5V rail for the supply to operate. Instead of a resistor I used a 12V 10W auto lamp which doubles as pilot lamp. I have yet to fit a DC switch, the green switch wire is earthed till then.

An old nearly ATX power supply set up for use as a bench supply. This needed a load on the +5V rail for the supply to operate. Instead of a resistor I used a 12V 10W (5W was too little load and 21W was unnecessarily large) auto lamp which doubles as pilot lamp. I have yet to fit a DC switch, the green switch wire is earthed till then.
