I got spoiled with #24 and #26 Teflon insulated solid wire, strips
easily and never abrades the insultation.

And you can just jam the point of a soldering pencil down
into a "rats nest" and not melt a bit of insulation!

Yes! But, I didn't want to rub that in to homebrewers. :-)

Sigh, I'm way overdue for searching electronic dumps for teflon covered
wire...old nylon-jacketed PVC is still old and still melts.

[I'm secretly glad no one remarked on the extra T in 'insulation,' that
would be instigation of insulting the insulation installation... :-) ]
