Anyone know where I can come by some 30 ga wire wrap wire? I am being told
that that is old technology. Gee whiz, I am old!

Google search for "wirewrap wire": first hit, RP Electronics, claims
to have it in stock in three colours, in 100 foot put-up.

Google search for "wire wrap wire": early hit, MarVac Electronics,
has it, probably in stock, in a wide variety of forms and colours.

Other hits are likely candidates as well.

Cheers,
Tom

Would you believe - Radio Shack.

They only have three colors, though.


Are you sure it is 30 gauge? I seem to remember RS wire as 28 gauge. I still
have a full bag of ww wire spools, along with several hundred sockets, I
built many a small machine like an cosmac elf with ww.

30 gauge is the standard gauge for wire-wrap wire.
I've used it a lot for building up one-off circuit boards. This is by
soldering, not wire-wrapping. The insulation type does make quite a
difference if you solder it. I think Kynar is the one that works well.
