Default Automatic wire strippers

Yes the riggers who did my original rotator wiring on my chimney used
teeth, and despite my misgivings about moisture in the cabling, everything
seemed to work very well. I wonder if they still have their teeth, they must
be retired by now!

At university, when I couldn't have afforded wire strippers I stripped a
length of figure-of-8 two-core mains flex with my teeth and the mains was

I've never forgotten, decades later.


No shocks, but a friend, a motor mechanic by trade, stripped out his front
tooth that way.

'twas day before his wedding!
