Go Brew Crew !! :D
 
They work great, simple as that, it depends on the cable sometimes you can use one drop for 2 cables. they stick hard and dont come off. so be careful.
i use some under my desk for my headphone cable (like a little cable management) and its a very thick cable works great! im a little sad they didnt send me any for review oh well.
And trust me you will use all 6, i did.
 
Maybe not the best place to ask, but I'm after a Digital Wall Clock for my setup and I'm wondering if anyone knows anywhere to get a modern looking one? In the UK would be preferred, but I've searched for ages with no luck.

Cheers,
Mark.

Mark, hi. Jessica here. What about this?
Giant ass flip clock.

You can thank me later, preferably by telling me if you'll build me a cabinet for my tv and components like the one you built. (that was you right?)

Yeah, I have seen that, it almost hurts dropping like $100 on a clock then postage to the UK, but damn it's awesome.

That wasn't me, but I'll totally be all manly and build one for ya. ;) I did build my own desk, how hard can it be?

Agreed but like the iPod lamp, I can't ever find a way to buy.

Oh sorry my bad about the mistake. BUT try to find a similar clock. Being in the UK you all usually have some rather awesome stuff. Hell, my duvet came from ASDA believe it or not. I searched for the right one for over a year and WHAM ASDA run and £12 later I have the duvet. I wish I had bought two. 2 years later I still love it.
 
Edit, the designer is look for a manufacturer. it would be very expensive because of two things:

1. OLED screen
2. Exclusive design

Those look great! Thanks for the tip! I used to use tape. :rolleyes:

My solution is masking tape and twist ties. Tape the twist ties to the back of the desk and it holds cables in whichever route you want. It's cheap, peels off easily and holds strong. Perfection :)

For me when I put time into it, it was zip ties and sticky tack (that blue stuff).
