I rarely buy new wires for my projects, since I rather recycle old cables that still lie around or those that are thrown away by others. I especially like to salvage multicore cables, such as power cables, old SCSI cables, or parallel and serial printer cables. The main problem doing this is to peel off the outer insulation shell of the cable which surrounds the inner wires which I want extract. It's possible to use a cutter knife to make a slit all along the full length of the cable, along which the inner wires can be pulled out sideways from the outer shell. But doing this manually is tedious and also dangerous, as the knife can easily slip off an hurt you - I know from experience :(
The aim of this project is to render the peeling of multicore cables more easy. For this, I made a little tool which guides the cable through a tight hole into which protrudes the tip of a cutter blade. Pulling the cable through the hole creates straight longitudinal cut of a precise given depth all
