------------------------------------------------------
* Tutorial #1 General Process: *
1) Create a Cross-Section of the Cable
2) Create a Path to Sweep the Cross-Section
3) Create Connectors on both ends of the cable
4) Color as desired
5) Export

Intended use is for a KiCad Footprint.
Exported .STEP can be done via Export and/or from the StepUp Plugin.

NOTE: You'll need to learn how to make good Sketches without errors (or it won't Sweep). Thus, this video assumes you know how to do that...

I did not fuss with making Actual/Real size Cable or Connectors.
This is Only a Graphic part for a KiCad Footprint. But, you can certainly make a 'Real' cable and connectors, is desired...
