Best DIY power cable. Why not make?

Ok perhaps I don't get it.  You have hot, neutral, ground and connectors.  I am looking for advise from those that have found the secret sauce in making power cables or at least those that have had great success.  With all the quality cable and connectors why not make your own?  I refuse to pay $2,000 plus for a power cable that would take a hour to build.  I am seeking your guidance and suggestions.  Thanks!

You are just adding one more, unnecessary, connection point to the chain. Spades can come loose or break.
I completely agree with you here.  It is one more connection and one more type of material for the signal/electricity to travel through.
They are also bad for speaker cables, though, and for the same reasons. (in theory).
