Quote: | A simpler solution would be to round the exposed end to eliminate
the sharp corners. Does anyone know of a nipper that would cut a
round end on the ties? If not, will someone please invent one !!

I found a much more elegant solution to the nylon tie problem - don't
use them at all. Instead, use "Lacing Tape" to secure wires. This
is a string like material which resembles waxed dental floss. It is
available from Aircraft Spruce and documented in many of the aircraft
mechanical books.
It is easy to tie wire bundles together with this stuff. It not only
holds them together it also prevents the wires from slipping through
the tie. Nylon ties don't include this quality.
I tried the nylon ties inside my wing, but was unable to get the
Tefzel wires to stay put as required. The lacing tape works MUCH BETTER.
