Mechcables Nautilus Custom Sleeved USB Cable

Oct 25, 2017

Mine just arrived, two days early which was a surprise. USPS estimated Friday and last time I checked tracking (this morning) it was still saying it was in the Washington, DC area (I'm in FL). Anyway, the cable looks great and the quality of everything used and the workmanship is all very high. Not much else to say other than it exceeded my expectations and that I can't wait for one of the three keycap sets I'm waiting for to arrive so I can use this on a keyboard with equally as high quality detail on the caps.
For anyone curious what the specific options on this cable were, it's the Standard Turquoise and Midnight Blue option, 7ft long, with the 7" coil.

Thanks, Massdrop & @mechcables!

jake.perrineSorry to hear that man. I can say that it's well worth the wait, and as far as I'm concerned within a week of a date estimated months out is on-time to me (at least in terms of Massdrop's timelines, although I understand it's easier to say that when I received mine already). Keep in mind this is handmade by a single guy, I think, and you can tell by the quality when you get it that he only ships out cables that come out absolutely perfect. I mean even making sure that the coil ends so that the cable rests flat against a surface with the correct side up, that's some crazy attention to detail, and made it so it connected to my keyboard perfectly even if it couldn't fit in the cable routing slots.
You can see what I mean here:

Usually I keep the backlighting just on white, but until one of the 3 keycap sets I'm waiting for arrives I'm thinking about leaving it like this just to make it more interesting.

LevelSteamYeah personally when I first saw the jumbo I thought it was cool, and I see the appeal, but I thought the standard had a better size ratio for what I was looking for on my desk. Still though, both the jumbo and the standard size coils have their own great qualities. I don't think you can go wrong with either.
