Update: A client said my cable ties were 'too aggressive'

They pointed out my bundles were so tight it looked like I was strangling the wires, which honestly made me laugh. Now I use Velcro strips for everything inside a case, and it's way easier for the next guy to work on. Anyone else get a weird piece of feedback that actually improved your process?

Strangling the wires" is honestly how we learn best.

My first guitar amp smelled like burnt toast for a month after I "learned" how to fix the input jack. The magic smoke is a very strict teacher.

Actually @elliotm57, that method can cause more problems than it solves. Forcing connections without understanding the basics often leads to broken gear or bad habits. A structured approach with clear guides builds stronger skills long-term.
