  • Are you a copper collector? If so then congratulations! The following tool is very much needed for you! In the next video I made I will show you an easy and quick way to build a tool for peeling copper wires easily. To facilitate the process of building the tool, I avoided using welding and tools that are not available to anyone. Of course, I have tried to use the materials that everyone has in their workshop or home. Certainly as a considered collector, this tool has made my life a lot better and that is why I decided to build it. So if you were looking for an easy and quick way to build such a tool watch the video and tell me what you think about it in the comments here.

    Great design and tool. I would really like to build one but need more detailed plans with deminsions. What are the two tapered gears that you are usings? The plate appears to be 4" X 4" and the threaded stoch is 1/2"?

    Excellent design of concept. For large volume of heavy gauge scrap the proportion of this device could be increased with an addition of a electric motor and gear reduction. Thanks for the vid.

    Very awesome! Now just need to hook up a dc motor to replace the crank and some kind of way to hold the wire straight with a bit of tension so you can just start the feed and it’ll do the rest automatically.

    In the process of making one of these for larger cable. I have tons of 350 and 4/0 GGC cable to strip which is difficult with just a razor knife... I have an electric stripper for the individual wires, just not the entire cable diameter. Going to figure out a way to drive it with the same motor as the electric stripper I already have.

      Take a board clamp.it to a table drill a series of holes each larger than the last in a line keeping one edge of each hole 1 in from edge the screw 1.25in screws into the holes enough to pierce insulation after inserting wire through appropriate size hole create a crank handle to pull the wire and spool it on a dowel

    Firstly, bravo. This is amazing, and filming is superb.
    Adjustment - is the biggest time-waster of strippng. If you could make the blade ratchet up/down with a tumbscrew click-click-click: You'd have a massive edge over competition.

      No it is not practical and easy to build for the average beginners. Where do you get those gear rollers, and if you don't have a vise how you keep this stripper unit steady? I bet you this stripper can not peel small stranded soft wire like the one that comes from extention cord or power cord from devices....

    That would be great for large cables but not so much single wire unless you add some sort of guide for the smaller stuff. Thought maybe I could be wrong and then sure enough you wrapped up the smaller wires and didn't try them. Still is a nice easy design that anyone can do without needing precision machining. Great job.

    A simple hole drilled in a piece of wood and a Stanley blade will do the same thing and no need for expensive bevel gears

    How much is your wire stripper? Is it for sale? Can you make another one for me and I'll buy it from you?

    You could use a wireless drill instead of using a crank and too bad you cannot strip the smaller wires. But still a good build

      Thanks my friend, the truth is I have made a number of upgrades since I made the video. Currently I can undress both very thin wires and I have also connected an electric motor that will make it turn instead of turning manually.
