Nah mate that failed dismally. I tried using a 4" thin disk through the double insulated to help protect the end and couldn't get the out on. The bell end lugs would be fine but the straight cut ones forget it. Those shears work awesome.

Most big bolt cutters have a cable shear in them but it's not the sharp guillotine type cut you need to do neat work..

You wouldn't say that if you worked with some of the tools where I am employed...

I flare the straight cut lugs with a centre punch..

Where are you in Melbourne Beexy, as there are a few of us with tools?
