I got some, can't remember where from unfortunately, but it sounds the same as the smallbear stuff, flimsy, and awkward, and i've not done one build with it that still has it in!!

If someone wants to do a group buy for the good stuff, i would be happy to chip in!

I'd too like some really high quality stuff. I originally used the rainbow wire from futurlec which is the best price per meter i could find. It's very flexible but still pretty durable from what I've found. After bought some from an old local electronics store that had selves full of wire, got something that looked good but regardless it was very cheap. I'm thinking Paul (jakefuzz) and I could go back and search through and find some really high quality stuff, there might even be teflon ribbon wire guessing by the rows of teflon regular wire.

Here is another idea maybe?

Just cut that up, not true ribbon cable, but may work. and its cheap as dirt. And their shipping is overnight for like $5 in california.
