A method for fabricating a cable-in-conduit-conductor for use in superconductor application is described. The system utilizes a work surface with drum means provided at each end. A superconductor cable is fed from a supply source at one end. After the cable is pulled through a tube on the work surface, the leading edge of the cable is bent around one of the drums and returned to the opposite end of the table. This naked length of cable is once again bent around one of the drums and then pulled through another tube on the table. This process is repeated until an acceptable length of superconductor cable is present. Tension means are used in conjunction with a tube mill which compresses the tube-cable combination into a viable cable-in-conduit conductor (CICC). Notably, as this tension-compression is occurring, the naked lengths of cable are eliminated and each separate tube section is joined together to create a uniform CICC.
