Making your own(or buying from cable makers here) does allow a lower profile and acces to releases and any clocking position you want.  BUT you cannot change it once it's done.

and shielding (since most who do stubbies remove a lot of the RFI shielding to reduce the profile). Not an issue the majority of the time (I can't recall any incidents in the 2 or 3 years I've used stubbies), but something to keep in mind if you're recording in those sorts of environments.
"This is a common practice we have on the bus; debating facts that we could easily find through printed material. It's like, how far is it today? I think it's four hours, and someone else comes in at 11 hours, and well, then we'll... just... talk about it..." - Jeb Puryear

Newer style( slimmer with no external screw to hold halfs together.  have less choices for clocking and end up either covering the release button or won't allow you to clock where you want due to the limited choices.

I file in new "notches" on mine to allow for more clock positions.
