So as I will have to find some method of stripping the wire, I might as
well continue like I have been doing and use the wire like the hard and
flopy drive cables. It is a small solid wire with the plastic type of
insulation. Easy to strip with just small wire strippers.
That's probably wire wrap wire. It's all #30AWG tin plated solid
wire.

The technology is mostly obsolete today. There were huge piles of the
pre-cut wire lengths and spools scattered all over the local surplus
stores. I have a few large bundles left that I use for making
breadboards. Highly recommended.

The only things I use magnet wire for is torroid inductors and
repairing motors.
