Ivory & Cherry Zigzag Cotton Electric Cable

Great looking product

Pros, I was trying to replicate a vintage cloth style appliance cord. Although not the same diameter it looked good. Cons, very stiff, very difficult to strip. The solid casing makes it hard to separate the two internal conductors. I ended up using a razor blade to cut around the diameter to get to the inside conductors then pulled the cut portion off. It usually left the inside conductors also cut but I learned to make my cut at a length I could use for contact. At that point you have to be very careful separating the two conductors I again used a razor blade to split it down the middle trying not to nick the insulation. It’s very had to see the white one because it blends with the casing. Then pulling on the two conductors spread it apart and again using a razor blade to cut away enough casing to make connections. Not sure how they can improve maybe a different color than white for the other conductor?
