| Re: Art of Safety Wiring To all of those racers who have found safety wiring as an art, can you direct me to where I could learn this? Is there a specific book? Any good sites?
What guage do you use?
What is the best sized pliers?
Thanks.
Spank her once for me. |

| Re: Art of Safety Wiring .032 is the size of wire to use, and the pliers will teach you with practice. I am an aircraft mechanic and we safety wire everything! Get the larger pliers. |

| Re: Art of Safety Wiring And buy good pliers, not the $19.95 cheapies. I like milibar. I wire a ton of #### at work for our race boats/motors and its the sort of thing that just takes practice till you get a feel for it. Search the old forum, there were some good threads, and I remember posting links to pictures and such back then.
