  • Where can I buy 20 awg tinned topcoat wire? Great videos and keep them coming! 

  • The twisting of the two wires is to eliminate the effects of capacitance between the two conductors. They also do this in telephone cables and used to do it when phone lines were strung between poles. Every third pole or so they would crossover the wires (Called a transposition) to canceled the buildup of capacitance. In that usage, it used to eliminate noise/crosstalk. So the capacitance of two wires side by side is higher than if you use a twisted conductors. Thanks for the video.

  • twisting the wires apply to ac circuits. the twisting helps cancel out the alternating waves in the signal reducing electrical noises. my comment isn't the best explanation,but you can search for more info.

  • Also, try to apply some grease/oil on the pvc insulation before twisting, it allows for finer twist without mechanic wear on the insulation. BTW, That's my idea from 1999 if anybody wants it patented ;)

  • Wouldn't 2-3 runs of a flat diamond file be easier, faster and less cumbersome than this 'deburring tool'? Cheers and keep up those videos coming ;)

  • Great videos! Thank you! What company makes your chassis? Thanks.

  • how do i find out the size of my tubes if it dosn't say

  • I thought that twisting and using shielded wire, was most needed for input and pre-amp stages.
