Now there's a guy who says what he wants.   Bob and I found an industrial
plastic tubing that comes in various colors and sizes which is split along the
length of the tubing.   You put the wires inside the appropriate length and
width of tubing, the tubing snaps back into place around the wires--instant
neat,
and you can pull them off at the split anytime.   We found the stuff at an
industrial hardware store out here.   You probably can find it at something
like
Ace Industrial Hardware.

BTW, zip ties and electrical tape work and look neat, but if problems show up
you have to get in with the crochet hooks and fish out the wires.   Curious
to know if you find something you like.
