  • Yeah I broke a few of my mini bolts on 12 gauge and that's when I realized that it was an improvement, because it was cutting closer the the fulcrum.

  • To slow of a process for large scale projects. I have been cutting steel for so long I can get through 3 rings of 16 gauge with one cut using those same wire cutters. Though I used a bench grinder to shorten the nose down so its now only 1/2" long. Gives you more leverage for cutting. My friends say my thumbs look like mini biceps from cutting so much.

  • i have that exact same mini bolt cutter :D it was like 5 $ and it's not aligned too well, but it cuts quite well when u get experienced with it. and yes, it get that ugly big pointy cut... (the material i use is 2.5 mm galvanized iron)

  • You teach us so much, Insomn.
