OK, I give up. I've tried about everything I can
think of to strip very small gauge wires, like the
ones that come off of a Ray Allen Switch. I struggled
with the wires on my elevator trim a few years ago and
was never really happy with the results. Now I'm
starting to wire my panel and figure there must be a
better way. What am I missing?

Take a look at the Ideal StripMaster http://www.bandc.biz/. These are
available at many electrical supply stores, B&C is just one supplier.

Hi, Rich.

You can go to Radio Shack and get one of their spring-loaded wire strippers, the kind that clamps the wire first and then strips the insulation away.

The stock interchangeable blades go down to 22 gauge, if I recall correctly. I think I paid around $20 or so back in 2006.

I remember it took two passes with the Ray Allen wires...
