Mains Power Cable DIY

I'd like to DIY a main power supply to my system.
I'd like to do this in two or three stages
1st to build a power cable from the wall to my amp
2nd to build a mians distribution for all the gear

And 3rd: I'm waiting to renovate my condo.
At that time I'll have a primary circuit from the panel to stereo run
If anyone can offer their experience and specific details I'd much appreciate it
Currently I'm running an old "gang box" ....something I made during my construction days. Tonight I took the wall socket apart , cut it back and reconnected everything and there was a fair difference in what I heard.
I'm specifically looking at wire sizes and recommendations for shielding and what it all looks like. TIA. Appreciate your experiences

I like what mitch said "dont over think it".I might have to get some of the neotech/stash.I do sheilded source and non amp/conditioner and have no problems with noise.These guys know what there talkin about and as for running in i picked up audioharma so it shaves off weeks of runin.The suggestions so far i concur.

wolfie62...wow you hit the lottery/in audio...sort of.

Power cable ...furutech triple c wire.Yes that was a good move.Now get some nice maple slabs and report back.Some of littlest tweaks reap nice changes.

Been using furutech's unsheilded alpha 3 for amp/conditioner for sometime now...never a problem.. with anything.Looking over venhaus's power cable construction explains some of the need or not.
