Thanks in advance.

Not all wire is created equal!

You can get super flexible six (or any) gauge wire. Check out McMaster for an example. It's more expensive but much easier to work with and tends to reduce strain placed on crimped terminations while moving the wire around. If you have a local supplier of wire, ask them for 'welding' or 'automotive' wire. They'll likely have something comparable.
