Default World's Worst Soldering!

John Larkin wrote
I scrape magnet wire with an x-acto knife. That leaves a shiny surface
that wets nicely. I think the professional wire strippers use rotating
knives.


I just select 375 °C as soldering temperature,
that burns the magnet wire insulation,
and then you can just tin it.
Scraping damages the wire.
But watch out for the terrible possible toxic smell.
