Re: [Homebrew_PCBs] stripping wirewrap wire

2007-05-06 by Peter Harrison

Well, by a sort of coincidence, I came across the Radio Shack wire-wrap 
tool.

http://www.radioshack.com/product/index.jsp?productId=2103243&cp

I even found a supplier in the UK who had one. It is very cheap compared 
to a 'proper' hand wrap tool and has a little stripping tool in the 
handle. This tool is only about 35mm long and proves to be exactly what 
I have been looking for. It reliably strips 30AWG wire and seems to 
leave no nicks on the conductor. It is much easier to use than the 
typical stripper built into the usual type of hand wrap tool. I may have 
to order a couple more for the inevitable day when I cant find it.

Thanks for all your suggestions.

Pete
