[QUOTE="I Like Waffle, post: 5961139, member: 600248"] To answer the original question at hand: YES you can twist wires together. In all actuality youre not twisting them at all, simply putting curves in the wire. The internals arent affected much if any. This ofcourse requires the use of common sense, like not overtwisting the wires, and not trying to twist 50 of them together. But think about it, when you take 4 wires, and wrap them around each other, youre not twisting any of the individual wires, just wrapping them which ends up looking like one big twist. But if it makes you feel better, get some twisted wire, and when you go to twist other wires with it do it counter clockwise that way itll untwist the original wires and make them last FOREVER!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
