One thing i found with my stripper is that the very beginning and the very end of the wire doesn't always get a good cut. That can make it hard to start the peel.
I was thinking along the same line. I have an electric rototiller that might work. one of the gears that connects the motor to the tiller is stripped. (or that is what it sounds like, also sounds plastic) If I could buy replacement gears from maker that might work. Sunjoe is maker/seller. They have very good customer support. I also have their lawn mower and they have replaced it once. Everything is chinese made and quality is fair. Guess they are used to fixing or replacing. tiller is 2 years old and it is also a replacement. (they pay postage both ways too)
yes, most of the time 1/16 to 1/8" of plastic is not cut at top and a bit at the other end. A couple inches from the start I bend the wire into a U and pull straight. The plastic pulls away from the wire. Then I start to strip. Then eact to pull off end.
