how do I shave these wires

[GhostStar]

K, I need to shave these wires so I can solder them together. But they arent like normal wires. They arent wrapped in rubber, but instead by a shiney metal or something. If I try to shave them with a scalpel or scissors I just end up cutting off the wire on the inside.

if you're talking about removing the enamel coating then use sandpaper to sand it off.

it's much easier to melt it off with a lighter; sandpaper will weaken the strands and (probably) cause them to snap at the solder joints
