Wire size question

Post by Matty1973 »

I have been building light kits into all my models of late but I always have the problem that the wires are too big and as such I can't use the wire wrap tool I bought, so I do it by hand which sucks.

I bought the madman deluxe spinner which came with some really fine wire which works great in the wrap tool

Can anyone suggest wire sizes??

This is what you need. Although you may be able to find it cheaper.

30AWG is the thing to look for.
