Zoomy, put that sleeving back on right now!

You want to get on sparky TicTok, hours can be wasted video on the merits of twisting conductors, usually followed on with battles as TikTok sparkies pledge allegiance to wago or scruits

I wonder if that was done by sticking the wires in a drill.  I have made my own twisted pair cables in the past by putting two wires into a drill, and winding it until it looks about right.

an artisan would do it by hand and it would look like a machine had done it

Don't forget that there was a time before battery-powered drills.

I can imagine a flat capped  old boy twisting the earth wires together in a leisurely fashion just before he lit up a Player's Weights fag.

We had hand drills back then.  No batteries to run flat.

Close! I still twist... remember, I think it was R&R who posted something like this, years' ago?
