Cable manufacturers?


How many cable companies actually manufacture their own cable? 

Perhaps Mogami, Belden, Canare and a few others. I am willing to bet most cable companies do not manufacture their own cable, but simply buy cable, throw on some techflex or other custom jacketing, and do nice terminations. 

Anyone have any any actual Information?

Is this just another one in a long series of all wire sounds the same with a different premise thread? 
zavato: "By manufacture, I mean their own wire"

The real question when you get down to basics is:

How many of them mine and smelt their own metal, which is used to make the wire?
So, cable manufacturers (designers and assemblers) must be alchemist? Can't tell if your post is humor. I hope so.
