Wire Shearing Pliers.

[Bill Ballard]

List,

I'd like to speed the removal of old wire in a restringing. I looked 
at a pair of steel strap cutters last week for $75 (H.K.Porter, 
#990T). These cut the strapping which tie up very heavy cartons. I'm 
hoping that these will be able to grab 3 or 4 or more wires and clip 
in one squeeze. (At this point, I still do have string hands.)

Solid cast steel, with 5" long handles (8" would be better), jaws are 
quick thick (but well ground) and set in the pattern of sheet metal 
shears (not in the same plane like scissors, but square to each 
other). I've got a rough tracing and will see how that traced shape 
would fit into the corners that wire has to be clipped in.

Or do you ninja rebuilders just through a 6" masonry wheel into the 
3/8" hand drill?

Muchos Thanquos.
