RamenNoodles Posted December 5, 2008 Report Share Posted December 5, 2008 OK so I bought these "Wire cutters" at Lowes and they blow more dick than Jenna Jamison. I mean they dont even cut through the whole piece of 1/0 it more just squishes it then cuts it at the last minute. They were the second biggest ones they had there, the other ones were like $40 with basically just a longer handle instead of the $20 i paid for mine. After using them a little, and by little I mean just to do my big3, then no longer clamp all the way so the 1/0 cant be cut anymore. Just wanted to know what everyone uses to cut their big cabling and where to get them for a decent price.

Gotloud555 Posted December 5, 2008 Report Share Posted December 5, 2008 Use a hack saw. Lay the cable on a flat surface and use your feet to hold it down and use your hand to hold the other side cable and saw it down. That's what i usually do and it work all the time. Don't bother paying huge price on pilliers to cut cable because the get dull later on. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
