Cable lacing

May 1, 1999
A: OK, I am stumped. The last time I saw a "how-to" on cable lacing, I was in the U.S. Army Signal Corps training at Fort Monmouth, NJ, in 1975, and we were using Federal Information Processing Standards documents as reference material. Has anyone seen a video on cable lacing?

Q: Is there a video on how to lace and tie knots when installing cables?
