The video proceeds to test the Jokari stripper on different sizes of NM-B (Romex) cable to demonstrate its versatility. First, they try 12/2 Romex, which strips effortlessly. The father highlights that there's no limit to the length that can be stripped with this tool, allowing for very long strips if needed. Next, they test 14/3 Romex, which also strips easily, described as going through 'easier than butter.' Finally, they try 10/2 Romex, a thicker gauge, and it also strips effortlessly, demonstrating the tool's consistent effectiveness across common residential cable sizes.
