    And for anyone watching who isn't subscribed, click that button! This man works so hard to feed his family. Compared to all those RUclipsrs who play video games or comment on TV shows or open boxes, the Scrap Hunter is in a different class. He's a proper grafter and deserves all our support

    I used to strip tons of wires like that very easily.
    I used a board in which I had grooves of different depths, a cable clip to guide them throug and a flat blade to cut the isolation.
    Maybe not worth the effort on real short pieces but I could do almost a barrel on a single evening.
    As for the rest of that stuff, might be worth the effort to completely break it down.

    Personally I would strip it out, could be well worth the work, the switch gear.
    You would need steel toe capped boots or you could damage yourself.
