Thank you for all your help with the division problem...doing the binary division took care of the problem. So I have the project working perfectly on the bench...now I need to move forward and build looms. I need to find some 'y' and 't' heat shrink boots...sometimes referred to as transitions. I have found the Raychem and 3M transitions. Nice products..yet they are really proud of them. Are there any other manufactures of transitions?
thanks in advance

    I didn't even know they existed. I guess they are for preventing friction from damaging Ts and Ys in a wiring harness.

    If you don't have that problem, you might find it a lot cheaper to forgo them and just use straight runs with bare Ts and Ys. I suspect that these are provided for military spec and aeronautic industry uses - so they have a limited market and higher price. [noparse][[/noparse]It also takes a lot more tooling to make a shrinkwrap T or Y as it isn't a simple extrusion process.]
