Hi, folks.

Well, here's another question about installing Anderson Power poles that 
probably has an easy answer, but the answer  hasn't come to this tired old 
professor's mind yet.

When installing the power poles, how do you keep your zip-cord wires 
straight by color without sighted assistance, when cutting off certain wire 
lengths from a spool?  I know how to do it electrically, but I want to be 
sure that I truly do have red wires for all positive leads, and black wires 
for all negative leads.

Once the wires are cut, I have ways to label them, but just can't figure out 
how to keep the colors straight when doing the actual cutting.

P.S.  I got my Anderson power crimper from West Mountain Radio, and what a 
great tool that is!  I'd recommend it to anyone.
