OK, I had some free time today and I had some success. I have jaws for
cutting heavy cables and a hydraulic power supply for it. The jaws are
new/Chinese by SDT and the power supply is Burndy from a heavy old
crimper.
As you can see from the pictures below, it does cut the tubes. You can
see how one tube is inside of another.
