LPT: If you have a lot of loose zip ties, well cut the head off of one and zip the rest onto that!

I bought ~190m of DC wire once.
Jesu
That's a lot
What for?
I asked for 5m for a science project. A coil of 190m was the minimum they sold.
It wasn't too expensive (not copper), so I went with it.
That's actually hilarious. What did you do with the leftover??
I still keep it in a cardboard box full of other electronics related stuff, which includes my shitty soldering iron (which is shitty enough to have made me thought that I was bad at soldering, until I once put my hands on a Weller) and other pieces of out of dysfunctional electronics that I have hoarded, thinking that I might do something with them, someday.
I gave this as a reply to your comment because it is in the same spirit.
The iron and the wire are the most used components out of that box.
Well you're not going to run out of wire for a while. lol
