I didnt spend any time figuring out the length before hand, I just used scraps I had laying around cut to the original width 5/8-in. I figured the rest would come to me as I tried to make them. I guess I started out with about a 5-in strip and trimmed it to size at the end. It took me making two of them to figure out the easiest way which is what I showed.

My battery cable is #1 easy flex welding wire and is 1/2-in thick. The original cable is 3/8-in thick. The sockets were 1/4 drive sockets and the outside diameter was 1/2-in and 3/8-in.
