I thought those $15 coax strippers from the truck stop were junk, but they've been my main tool for a year now.

Saw a forum thread where a guy swore by those cheap strippers for low voltage work. He said the trick is to not crank down the adjustment screw too hard, just enough to score the jacket. Honestly, sometimes the simple tools just work if you know their limits.

Totally, it's all about that light touch... works for coax too.

Cheap tools, high skill ceiling. The real trick is knowing when to stop turning.
