This wire wrapper came with some other tools. I don’t have any use for it - perhaps someone in the forum can use it?

If you were closer I might be interested. I've got this wire twister pliers that I've never been too impressed with and yours looks like a better system. I use wire wraps as security measure on aircraft bolts for my ultralight.

@DPittman those are super great once the learning curve is complete - however, you typically break the wires all the way until the last one. LOL - we use those on the engine and exhaust lagging.

The wire wrapper I posted is more on the electrical side for wrapping around a terminal post.

 
Wire wrapping, its more fun when 3" thick and you need to re-route a few wires. Too often it was the bottom of 3 wires on the pin as well. Twisted pairs added to the fun.
This is the back panel of a Univac core memory unit at Bell Canada in 1974.
