I'm a bit on the fence with this one.
But for small stuff, and if you don't have much arm strength for some medical reason ....... https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vMz89XjRXj0 BTW this YouTube channel is entertaining. Cheers |

That's a pretty neat tool, especially if you are a bike thief, and there's plenty of that in Perth, bugger the 2 foot long boltcutter!
Just go to Bunnings, slip it down ya daks, and go get a bike, for free! lol,hahaha...... Other than that a handy tool as you said for folk like me, but how often would I use it? |

Its nothing new as a concept. Ive used big electric units and hand pump hydraulic things many times before for properly big cables.
So unless you dont have a 9' angle grinder, or want to risk copping ****ing strain using a hacksaw. The big hydraulic ones or electric ones are the go. For smaller stuff like say the pad locks or fencing stuff, regular bolt cutters are faster and easy to use. |

Yes well aware of how hard stainless is but Ryobi are the ones who made the claim of it being able to cut ALL sheet steel upto that thickness.

Never use it anymore, switched to a 5in M18 Milkwaukee Fuel grinder for mirror polished SS now cuts like butter. Makes great truck deck plates.
