Default Strange CMP snake sighting in New Hampshire

Bob asked a while back for the name of a reliable supplier of wire for CMP wiring harness materials , cloth covered vinyl wire, and looming. Well I just went through purchasing the wire making up the harness and sending out to have the covering loomed onto the harness.

Here is the time line of project-- June 19 ordered wire, June 21th received spools of wire, (June 22-26 away at Cadwell, June 27 started laying out the harness on pin board, June 30th shipped harness out to be loomed, July 3rd received the loomed harness back. The out fit I used is one I have used before Rhode Island Wiring Service Inc http://riwire.com/ I told them in my first e-mail that I was pushing to get the harness installed in a truck for a show at the end of July and they gave me very fast turn around.

Now as to cost: Wire and connectors approximately $205 US (I say approximately because I ordered enough wire for 3 trucks) cost to have the looming done on one harness was $114 US.

Another good outfit that I’ve used in the past is http://www.vintagewiringofmaine.com/ my selection this time was driven by who responded first (Vintage Wiring was away at the MVPA convention when I sent out my e-mail checking on wire availability and looming turn around.)


Now I’ve got to install the harness and then put the wire terminals on, almost a shame to put this nice clean harness into the truck as it will undoubtedly be oil covered in 100 miles or so.
