Purchasing pre-made cables

[edeca]

A while back somebody on here told me about a shop which sold pre-made cables, e.g. with the single row crimp connectors like these:

**broken link removed**

Sparkfun sell a bunch of 2 connector versions which are neat, but I'd like a selection of different sizes. I could buy a crimp tool and learn to use it, but I'd rather just get ready made cables if possible. I do have an IDC crimper which works well, but sometimes it is nicer to have a smaller header/connector.

Something single row like the above would be great, both wire->connector and connector<->connector cables. I'd forgotten the shop I was recommended, does anybody know alternatives?

I don't know of anywhere but all I can say, if you're talking about getting cables custom made, it's not going to be cheap.

I didn't mean custom made.

I saw a shop that sold those sorts of connectors pre-made in both connector to connector and connector to wire format. There were a variety of options from 2-pin upwards.

I don't appear to have bookmarked it which was a bit silly, so I was wondering if this would jog the memory of whoever recommended it.
