I ended up with some techflex on one of the components I bought and threw it away. It's junk compared to the fabric loom and looks cheap to me. The ends fray and when you try to melt them with a heat gun or lighter to stop the fraying, it just melts together. The fabric loom has aprox 25% overlap as well, that's why it's such a pain to work with (especially the small diameter stuff). It bends easily and doesn't allow the wiring to come out. Plus when you cut it, just melt the end a little and you have a nice, crisp edge. If you buy a roll, you won't go back and you won't be sorry.
