Making better wire endings

>>1081449
You're fucking kidding right?

>>1081452
no.

connecting very, very small wires to a small circuit is hard.

>>1081449
What am I looking at, OP?

small wires that would normally connect a switch to this old bastard

I have to reconnect them and I don't have a soldering iron

I'm trying to be cost effective with any alternatives I can get.

Go to your hardware store and spend ~$10 on a pair of wire strippers.
Get ones that go up to 26=28 gauge wire.

You can try and cut it with a knife, but it will be difficult. And you could ruin it. The strippers will come in handy later down the line too.

Spend the ~$4 it costs to buy a soldering iron. They sell them at walmart

>>1081456
Now that I see what it's for, I refuse to help you.

Are you 14? An effing light saber? Seriously?

>>1081449
Just use your fucking teeth if too cheap to buy strippers

>bought it back in '05, back when local borders was going out of business
>got it for like $40 less than it would be

kindly fuck off, I needed a collectible in my life.

>>1081466
Even worse that you shopped at borders. By the way, it was made for 6.70, marked up to 120$, discounted at 80, and sold for 40. You always get fucked by those stores. Same happened with sports authority, going out of business sale was 30% off of shit marked 40% over Amazon prices.

>how to small wire to small circuit

you strip a little bit to expose copper, then use a soldering iron, there is no other way, stop dicking around and watch some tutorials and learn some shit, you aint gonna do shit if you wanna niggerrig about it and we aint a magic school teaching how to solder without solder, it aint gonna happen

this idiot is going to fucking kill himself. dont help him

>>1081483
This. Make sure you're getting lead based rosin core solder when you buy your iron; lead free is the shittiest shit to work with.

you can strip insulation with a lighter and solder with a power supply and some pencil lead

don't listen to these elitist fuckers

When it comes to wire that thin I typically get a fresh razor blade, then ever so gently rest the blade on the wire. I then roll it forward just enough to make a full rotation, then roll it back. This allows the blade to lightly cut the rubber all the way around. Stop when you feel the blade hit the metal. Then pull the rubber off the wire and boom it's exposed.

This was the best picture I could find. Lay the wire on a table and put the razor on top of it. Slowly push the razor blade forward and it will rotate the wire while also cutting the rubber. This only words with a brand new blade

even better if you leave a little bit of rubber and just tear it off so your blade never came in contact with the wire

Use a lighter and burn rubber
Pull rubber to expose wire
