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 don't make my own. I ordered from modDIY.com. Came in quick and exactly to spec.

I'd recommend finding the exact length you need by searching online, then ordering to spec. It'll make your life a lot easier.

How concerned do I need to be about pinout if I go through a supplier like modDIY? My understanding is that it's not recommended to mix and match PSU cables from multiple manufacturers.

I have no idea what you mean about pinout. I'm personally not concerned.
