Coiling cables correctly

Over-under coiling is the way to go. This video we will cover the proper method for coiling cables. It allows the cable to lie flat when uncoiled, and makes for easier and faster work.

Over-Under cable coiling is a technique for winding up your cables and wires in a way that extends their longevity and reduces tangling. If you wind up cable the way most people do, every loop twists the cable in the same direction. Doing that repeatedly is what causes cables to get all screwed up.

The “over/under” name refers to the practice of twisting the cable in one direction to make the first coil, and un-twisting it to make the next, and repeating this until all the cable is neatly coiled. The basic idea is that the first loop twists the cable, and the next loop untwists it.
