Does anyone have experience with ordering custom cables? We have some old equipment in the lab that would require something to the tune of a round 9-pin to a flat 25-pin connection.

My boss has the specifics but I mentioned I would see if I could dig up anything. Ordering the specific cable from the manufacturer is north of $100 so we're looking into cheaper routes first.
 
You are going to need a better description of the connectors than "round 9 pin " and "flat 25 pin", you will also need to know how the two connectors are to be linked together and whether there are any special requirements on the cable in between.

Generally for a one off i'd just make a cable myself. If you can't solder then i'd look for something like a local hackerspace or post a request on an electronics forum or mailing list, i'm sure there are plenty of people out there who would build one for an appropriate fee.
