    Braided expandable sleeve size???

    Does anyone know what size braided expandable sleeve is used to make rod socks for normal baitcasting rods? Is the size measured when slack or expanded? I need it for a group of cables but I'm not sure how it's measured. I know the rod socks I have are the perfect size though. Thanks!

    Finnegans Garage on you tube just had an episode talking about a huge supplier of this stuff. All types of varieties. Not too many places would be tooled up to make this stuff, so it might be the mother ship company hes talking about. Very cool channel, too. He and Dave Frieburger hosted Roadkill garage. Another awesome series.
    Sounds like I might skip lunch and you tube it now and then, huh? I have no life....
