Wirewraping or sodering

After doing my first project, I realized how big and thick my fingers are:P
Anyone have any recomandations on how to do small test projects? I can
soder well enough, but that always is alot of work for somting that might be
taken appart after a few hours. I was doing wire wraping with my fingers
and scissors, but then it occurs to me there might be an easyer way.

pretty pricey. Try http://www.web-tronics.com -- there are other places
that are fairly cheap.
The ASP-II (http://www.al-williams.com/awce/asp2.htm) makes it easy to
work with a breadboard and a Stamp.

There certainly is. Solderless bread boards. Radio Shack sells them, but
if you're not in a hurry do a web search and find a cheaper supplier.
If you like wire wrap (which IMHO is a bit much for prototypes or playing
around), I believe Radio Shack still sells a wire wrapping tool and wire
wrap wire. If the tool has an integral wire stripper, be sure to pull the
wire thru it in the direction that pulls the cutter against the tool vs
pulling it away from the tool. The latter can break the cutter because it
is brittle. It's pretty much the nature of the beast.

don't need to cut the wires to length if you buy the pre-stripped/cut tubes.
