Do folks make their own cables to fit inside cramped cases? (self.sffpc)

Is it worth the effort to make custom cables, or should I just work on better cable management?

I have seen news about custom cables catching fire. I'd day stick with good quality cable unless you are absolutely sure about what you are doing.

Wow, I've heard of other cable issues, but not custom cable fires. Sounds like something like measuring for ModDIY-created cables might be the best route. I've made cables before but never tried PSU sleeving.
