Default the REAL problem with my Dustbuster...

There is no cutting action in the wirewrap process.. and the post/terminal
isn't typically deformed, the wire is.

The round wire surface is displaced by the corners of the post (conforms to
the corners), breaking thru any surface oxidation of the surfaces, and
creating the gas-tight, electrically secure mechanical connection after
several/6 wraps are completed.

Before someone mentions wire wrap... In wire wrapping, the wire actually
cuts into the post, forming a gas-tight connection.
