Cool Auto Wire Stripper

[Mellow]

I'm sure some of you have known about this tool for years but I didn't.

I've always used cheapo wire strippers always a hassle to mess with.

This little gem is pretty cool... You line up where you want the wire stripped and
then just squeeze and it cuts/pulls and it only cuts the plastic with very minimal
extra wire cut, if any.

That is the cheapo. http://www.mytoolstore.com/klein/11062.html
My Klein has withstood 25 years of professional use and works perfectly.
Step up to a good crimper like this, http://www.mytoolstore.com/klein/1005.html and you will wonder why you fooled around with junk.​

I guess some people are not happy with the 70's...LOL
I have lots of HF stuff and am happy with them.
