i used to have a little wire stripping tool that would strip about 10 wires at once.  it got worn out and i threw it away.  my brother sort of unknowingly gave it to me a few years ago.. i have no idea where to find something like this... should be under $20

I got one of those at the rat shack but it didn't do that many wires. I think five is the most I put oit through.
I think I paid like $12.00 for it. Probably better options elsewhere but if your stuck it should do.

a couple weeks ago i made 5 more stupid boxes....  i spent more time stripping wire than soldering....... aaaaaaaahhhhhh :x

Just mentioning another stripper I've had great success with is:

I'm reading it off the arm of the stripper : CLAUSS  WS-6
Fremont Ohio.     ...good stuff

Probably the best I've tried so far. It was around 20$ cdn. but well worth it.

im surprised no one has made a joke about a (ahem) a $20 stripper taking 10 wires.

Anyone tried those electrically heated strippers? the kind wiht a metal strip that heats up, and a notch that you pull the wire thru? More than $20 unless they turn up surplus.

How about a Craftsman from Sears? They had a few to choose from and have a lifetime guarantee. Replace it for free when it wears out.
