Don't you get an annoying rippling effect along the cut edge? I had this
on my cooker hood. Used a very good quality pair of snips. But each time I
had to move them along and start a new snip I would get a slight ripple in
the metal.

Did you move on before you completely closed the snips?
You get the same effect with scissors on card if you close them all the way
before moving along.
