the yellows are straight cut snips, you need the reds and greens

Another tip cutting outlets in half round gutters, I use daily. either stab the trough through or drill an 1.5 inch hole cut one ragged cut all the way around .5 inches inside or so. Follow up with a nice clean cut to your mark, this can be accomplished with either R or L snip with out the back and fourth between the two. Offset snips can be very helpful with a lot of the longer straight cuts on flat material, I use offsets for flat dimensional trim and aviation style for patterning or cutting circles.

No drill need just a tip of a screw driver and hammer, and you should be able to cut a circle with one pair and way to many relief cuts for that small cuts

Red right would make sense, but they are not, Reds are left. At least where I come from. Ain't nothing wrong w baldness, shows testosterone in a better way than you just did.

Our Build No, thank you, did a good amount of trim thx to your video. What would make me want to use the straight vs the left (yellow vs red snips)? One comment said yellow not for long cuts?

@karpenterken1 6 жыл бұрын

Left and right handed snips aren't designed and designated by which hand you use them in. They determine the direction of the offcut and the side the metal distorts during the cut. As for the original person who posted, left is red, right is green, just like with port and starboard lights on a ship or boat.
