Hey, i want to replace one of the cables for the speedball upgrade, because i knicked it a bit while stripping and can't find the rest of the cables anymore.
What AWG and type of cables are used for the speedball upgrade? I still have some of the thicker cables for regular crack building here, can i just use those? I guess they might be a bit harder to use, but it shouldn't hurt using thicker AWG?

Speedball = 22
Crack = 20

The crack wire worked fine in the speedball. I actually prefer having the 20 AWG in speedball because I broke the 22 few times.

yes, i also broke multiple end parts with the speedball wires.
especially since my cable stripper was unable to strip cables that thing
