Have a great day ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Prof Shadow, I agree! It IS cheaper to make them yourself but only if your time is free. From my perspective TIME is the one commodity you cannot buy back so I'd rather pay the $3 than burn up a night making up 30 of them.. Last edited by Not_sirius; 06/19/19 08:13 PM.

I finally broke down and bought a few thousand feet of 24/4 JK wire and some good-quality 6P4C plugs. My son and I spent a few nights watching TV and drinking beers while making them. It sucks because there's still a large demand for them, but not at Sandman's prices. Ed Vaughn, MBSWWYPBX

Yes I have made them in the past.and still have the tool & plugs. I don't watch much boob-tube and at $4 a piece I would have to produce at least 1 double ender every 2 min just to break even.. OH..... The other factor is that in my advanced and declining years, time to myself for FUN is worth quadruple time. Anybody out there a SAILOR? Or better yet a PIRATE! If so come sail on the Mandalay with us in November!
