RMweb Premium St Enodoc Posted August 7, 2018 RMweb Premium Share Posted August 7, 2018 Not cutting wire but bullhead track this morning using my "trusty" Xuron cutter and the damn things snapped ! One blade just flew into the ether, I've never encountered that before. D.Isgruntled Serves you right for going 7 mm. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
RMweb Premium newbryford Posted August 7, 2018 RMweb Premium Share Posted August 7, 2018 The other way of cutting spring steel wire is to use a needle file and "nick" the wire either side. It will then snap. Cheers, Mick Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

RMweb Premium Mallard60022 Posted August 7, 2018 RMweb Premium Share Posted August 7, 2018 This bloke tried snapping a Cobalt wire thingy...... he failed and so tried using this equipment as displayed by the P4 Society That wasn't any good so he resorted to this sadly it destroyed his layout.
