add a spring mechanism
now, so that the cables will auto retract ;)

Don't do this with network cables...
Coiling an electrical cable produces a magnetic field. If you do this with network cables (or other data lines) it can really mess with your signals.

- how about shielding the box
  to avoid the field affect other components (screen, speakers, hard drives, etc.).
  
  any ideas what can be used for this?

ha ha
cool idea,
you should put some spring inside, while we pull out the cables then it should tie it back by force of spring, same like vaccume machines :)

WARNING - DANGER - HAZZZZARD!
This is a great idea if you either wanna start a fire and or just create a hell of alot of interference, Ever headed of electromagnetism. fool! Goto school and do some basic physics.....!!! but well done for being inventive and for recycling!

- well
  i think it wouldn't catcha fire, but about interference you are right, the mistake of this video is that he shows many lines all together from diffrent types of current, diffrent types of interfereneces. if it is only one line from one source it is not a problem.
  your comment is ok but next time try to be a bit friendly.
  
  thank you

- and then again.....
  There is power cords running through this box, coiled mains power cables create induction coils which can cause heat over time, eventually ending in fire, specially in a polythene CD container. good concept tho

Gustoheat
This looks like a good Idea, BUT it is a fire hazard. You may be surprised at the amount of heat given off from cables. Wrapping cables together in a confined container is not a good idea.

- Horrible idea! Starts fires!
  Gustoheat is right. Extreme fire hazard! never coil electrical wires, thats basic fire prevention knowledge. At least dont do it with your power cables. You might get away with shielded CAT-5 or USB but your better off running a daisy chain.

  could you punch a vent and attach an 80 or 92mm case fan to the top of the case? I guess you could run a molex plug to the box. I think the only cable you wouldn't want coiled in proximity with others would be the A/C supply.

  Yeah I suppose you could attach a fan, but I'm still not sure that would make it safe. And as sean1983 says you will still have interference from the electromagnetic current that would be coming from it. But it does still LOOK like a good idea and 10/10 for thinking of it, alas, not all good ideas are safe.

Be careful!
Well done! but please beware
when you coil up cables it creates heat because of induction especially cables with mains voltage flowing through them, I made a similar thing myself but it's bigger with air holes top and bottom to help keep it cool

Not a good Idea
If you know electronics you would know that this would cause a magnetic field something that is not good around computers and or monitors or TV's. When you coil electrical wires it creates a field in which you can loose definition and other problems.. All in all its up to you. Have fun

Cables box, easy to make electromagnet
This is a bad idea.
Buy coiling all of the wires together like that, you are essentially creating a big coiled magnet, if you have little things like, oh, I don't know wifi or a ray tube monitor, you may start running into interference.
Great idea for cleaning up a mess, but functionally not so good.
