That's some pretty hefty stuff, capable of carrying high currents,
and consequently tougher to handle, needing heavier gauge tools to
work. <br>
Normally hobbiests live above the 18AWG - 30AWG side of things. For
stranded wire of that size, you can likely get some at either the
Home Depot like or electrical shops (Westburne). 7AWG is an unusual
size (commercially available), you may have to move to 6 or 8
depending on requirements.<br>
<br>
Just out of curiosity, how much current are you intending on driving
as ultimitely that is the factor that guages size (current and line
voltage loss (i.e. I<small><small><small>2</small></small></small>R)
over the run)<br>
Given your pin sizes (.100" and .156"), you will have maximum wire
AWG that you can use. <br>

convert AWG to mm2, but to get to your pin size you would need to do
some conversions.<br>

</div>
<div> I'm sick of using high gauge ribbon cable for wiring
between circuit boards and potentiometers, and similar
low-power applications. Especially because this 909 clone I'm
building has a bunch of 0.1" and 0.156" molex connectors I
need to crimp.</div>

</div>
<div> Where should I go to buy ~30' of multistrand copper
wire? Probably want 10AWG, 14AWG, 7AWG.</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div> Digikey links, or local suggestions would be great.</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>Thanks in advance!</div>
