    And for anyone watching who isn't subscribed, click that button! This man works so hard to feed his family. Compared to all those UA-camrs who play video games or comment on TV shows or open boxes, the Scrap Hunter is in a different class. He's a proper grafter and deserves all our support

    I used to strip tons of wires like that very easily.
    I used a board in which I had grooves of different depths, a cable clip to guide them throug and a flat blade to cut the isolation.
    Maybe not worth the effort on real short pieces but I could do almost a barrel on a single evening.
    As for the rest of that stuff, might be worth the effort to completely break it down.

    Personally I would strip it out, could be well worth the work, the switch gear.
    You would need steel toe capped boots or you could damage yourself.
