November 26, 200717 yr Author Step 4 Make an Over loop, grab cable about 2 feet from right hand with your left hand and loop it over your hand like normal, no twisting ( same as step 2).Step 5 repeat step 3 and 4 until cable is completely coiledStep 6 Tie cables tie to it and hang the cable up or store it safe. Cable ties are cheap, buy them.Step 7 when you are ready to use simply untie the cable tie and hold one end and throw the rest of the cable, your cable should stay straight and tangle free.Comparison cable throw demoCoiling a cable properly is easy to do and can be somewhat time consuming at first. But once you get the hang of it you will make it a habit to coil it like so. Your cables will last longer (saves money), stay in shape, tangle free, and it is easy to dispense when you need it for the next time.

November 27, 200717 yr Author does it work with christmas lights????works with any cable. But with christmas lights it might be a gamble because chrismas lights have hanging wires on them. so if one wire goes through a single loop then you will have that tangle in every loop when you throw it. but given it stays the way it should no problems should happen
