Weicon strippers

I FINALLY bought a pair of the Weicon strippers that Mark recommended years ago

In every build that I’ve ever posted here, I used a pair of toenail clippers to strip and clip every wire. I had a cheap pair of screw cutter/strippers but the toenail clippers worked better

I don’t want to write a mile long post about wire strippers but these things are game changers for me. They do such a nice job and will save me a bunch of time and frustration.

I waited forever to buy these because they’re from the UK and shipping blah blah blah.. JUST BUY THEM if you need some strippers, they are so worth it

That’s cool. You Germans come up with the best stuff

Having used these on a few projects now with wire diameters ranging from ultra thin to thicker shielded cable I am only more enamored with these things. They make an annoying time consuming task lightning fast

I didn’t. I ordered them on amazon and they shipped from amazon UK. I didn’t realize that and through they were shipping from here otherwise I would have gotten them at Rapid. Yea they have some cool stuff, been looking at their site for years now.

Did you change the title?

For a week I could've sworn it said: Welcome Strippers

Which would totally make sense for your new purchase
