nonethefewerQuestion!
I have an AC device. The cord snapped. I hear tell that I can:
* Strip the insulation.
* Get some shrink tubing meow meow what and slide it on, cord-side.
* Twist the two wire ends together.
* Slide that tubing over, and use heat or summat to seal it all together.
Two questions:
1) Can I use duct tape instead? Wrap it around the middle to keep the wires separate, then around the whole thing?
2) It's not two wires, so much as two bundles of teensy wire things. Let's pretend I don't speak hardware, and that this extends to electrical work - what would be the easiest way to reconnect these?
