P.s Jan, I do have a question....what do you use to strip the insulation off those very small wires of the plasma cord? All of my wire strippers are a bit to much and are breaking the really fine copper wires as well when taking the insulation off?

How small do your strippers go? Most of mine only go down to 16-18 AWG, but I found a pair of Channellock brand that go down to 20-22. Any smaller and you can pinch between your fingernails and strip it.

Not sure Nick but I have 2 different pairs that work great on household wires, but these are really fine and the copper wires are like angel hair. I'll try that fingernail hint and see how that goes.
