when you go to solder leads, you will have a tough time with the hi-temp stuff,
so i always buy the "solderon" stuff,
you need a mechanical wire stripper or razor blade for the poly-nylon,
and srtipping the #44 and smaller is a real pain, if you heat up the wire hot enough to melt the insulation, then you are making the copper weak and prone to snappage,
sometimes you need the heavy insl. hi-temp wire, like the Macintosh outputs where they quad wind the pri and sec right next to each other, Doc Hoyer uses Kapton wire which is very expensive but can take 3 zillion volts before breakdown,
