Found a new way to cut wire!

[RandyJ 10+ year member]

Well, after dicking around with the wiring in my Hoe the other night and failing to cut through it with the provisions I had at bay, I got pissed and used my electric angle grinder. Worked great, smooth cut, no freyes (sp?) on the wire nor the insulation, and it went through without a problem. No hurt hands, no fudged up cuts, just real nice and simple. Just thought I would let ayll know in case you have one handy and had never thought of it.

BTW, a grinding wheels works as well as a cutting wheel.

I'll have to put the cutter wheel on my Dremmel tool and give it a shot!

I've done that with my dremel and a cutting wheel. I VASTLY prefer my wire cutters (i.e. bolt cutters) to any other method.

I agree with whoever said it earlier. Like buddah...

I suggest you provision some bolt cutters.

PVC pipe cutters will slice 0 gauge "like butter" and cost under $10.

Get them at any home center
