[Boatanchors] wire labeling

[Jbrannig at verizon.net]

I use a WORD template to print two line descriptions sideways on plain 
paper.
Each label is about a 1/2 inch in width and a bit longer in length.


Full descriptions, matching the device label,  are used i.e.. "75S-3B audio 
out" or "OMNI-VI Key IN"
The font size is adjusted to fit.

The labels are printed, cut to size, wrapped around the cable or connector 
(with small cables) and taped to hold.

I also label the plug ends of the power cords.  This is helpful when 
crawling under the desk.

I have used Avery labels: Get the size you want then go to www.avery.com
and download Avery Wizard.  It's free and then overcoat your label, once
it's on the wire with clear tape.
I also use the labeling machines such as Brother and fold it over to
make a "tab".
