[GreenKeys] The most annoying part of Teletype restoration.

[E.]

Well, I can’t say my way is authentic, but it’s at least halfway practical ;p .  I use tiny but a bit fatter zip ties every inch or so on a bundle of wires… not too loose but not too tight.  Wires end up supporting each other without cutting into the lines.  Easy to cut off too, if not too tight, for rewiring.
