30 Gauge Kynar Wrapping wire is what I and most others use.
Or what your talking about is Enamle Coated wire, but i dont much like it.
AWG 30 kynar wire for aal points exept +Vcc , ground , SCEX , RESET this need 28 or 26 awg
enamelled wire sucks - you'd have to sand the enamel off the end before you could solder, and it will end up being a huge pain in the ass - go with wire wrap
A lot of pros use enamelled wire. I wonder why.
yup i agree charlie its the only wire a will use its flexable strong and easy to minipulate like so this is enammeled wire.Quote:

Just use double 30 awg on VCC and GND points, perhaps even reset point. I don't see real use to do that on SCEx point.

you dont have to sand the enamel off of the wire, I burn mine off with a lighter. Thats 1000000x's easier than stripping wire, burn and trim and it only costs $6-7 for 2000 ft cant be beat imo, I am no pro, but that's what i use.
I call my self a pro http://www.playerone.cc/modchips/v4messiah2.jpg thats kynar there. Stripping is not hard, I got my clippers and i strip it in about 1/10th of a second.
