Since I'm deep into wiring, there's some things I do to make life

easier.  I thought I'd share them.  Wiring up my intercom I used some 4

wire shielded for each position.  Stripping the insulation off the

braided ground is tough.  My 'hint' is to use a razor blade just pressed

on the insulation .... don't 'saw' .... and bend the wire to break the

insulation all the way around.  Keeps the braid intact.



The next 'hint' is to use an insulator from a full-size alligator clip

to capture the insulation and pull it off.  You might have to flex the

insulation to break it loose from the braid.



There's also a nice EAA video on dealing with shielded wire.
