Eurorack female header to 22AWG wire

I am making some of the LMNC strip board projects , Simple VCO , MS 20 filter , Simple envelope gen , Trouble is , my Power distro boards are mostly 10 pin eurorack , is it possible , instead of using the standard ribbon cable , use three 22 AWG wires see pic .
open-uri20160601-21382-s3gzd5 and using
wires , using the Black , red and yellow only ( +12 gnd and -12)

Rather than using the IDC connectors in a way they weren’t designed for, why not put 10 pin headers on the stripboards and connect to your bus board with a ribbon cable? It’s generally a pretty minor modification to the stripboard layout. If all else fails you can use a small piece of stripboard to connect a 10 pin header to 3 short wires which would then go to the main stripboard.
