I'm using the Pomona black lead holders (Mouser part #565-4408)and
each holds 50 cables (ten each of 1', 2',3', 4', and 6') made from
Belden 9778 and Switchcraft #280 1/4" plugs. I haven't weighed my
cables but the Pomona lead holders certainly aren't straining under
this weight.

This lead holder is not the same as used for test leads, which Paul
is describing. This is a good steel unit-worth the 8 bucks!

Chub-ask me how mine are hanging!
