| fenn | good bit of advice that i'd like to get into skdb eventually: wind the cord onto a drum, by turning the drum. Do not wind the cord onto a stationary drum by hand. This will put a twist in the cord for every turn around the drum, which will cause you no end of tangling trouble later. | 00:31 |
