They look like a nice set of snips mate, how much were they?

[Eucep]

@exillionXLR I actually put the costs in Euro's in the comments from what I remember them being.

You made and uploaded this video way to quickly. Great information thanks for the responce. Those wire cutters are amazing the Tamiya brand one is tiny and leaves no marks on the kit pieces.

@mokanaman When I get something in my head, I go do it. The main reason though for making it into a video response is to show them as I was not entirely sure if the proper English name is fine wire cutter as I just literally translated how it was called in dutch.

This will be helpful. I've been using a crimping-type wire cutters to weaken the larger spruces and a hobby knife.

@Eucep Oh yeah , my bad mate lol¬

Thank you for this. I have the bigger, more standard pair of wire clippers. Looks like I need to hunt down some of the ones you featured.

@Eucep No you did a fine job of showing what people should and shouldn't buy. Great video.
