A shear cutter for wire looks NOTHING like the shear cutter in your
tiny brain, boy. You refer to a sheet metal shear. You are a stupid
little twit. Shear cutter for wire is like the little screw cutter in
the all purpose wire stripper/crimper/cutter tool you should be aware of.

Don't use 'all purpose tools. You really should walk past that pound shop.


Alas, you should also be aware of what the shear operation is. The
fact that you obviously envisioned that I was referring to a pair of
scissors tell us that you have very little grasp of the mechanics, much
less the tools being used in the industry.

Have you moved on to production now? Different ball game.
