This review is from: Wiss HM41V HVAC Compound Action Pipe and Duct Snip (Tools & Home Improvement)
i bought these snips to rough cut plastic laminate. when i got them in the mail and tested them on a scrap piece i thought i had wasted my money. they cracked the material on both sides of the blades. later that night i started tinkering with them. i took em appart sharpened the blades, rounded over the back edges so they could pass through the material easier, adjusted all the screws and sprayed em with a dry lub that i spray my good saw blades and router bits with. they work MUCH better now but they still take some serious concentration and effort to make good cuts. i guess i was dreaming that they would make cutting formica like cutting paper, they don't, but i do like the fack that they are much quiter then a router, don't require any setup, and the don't make dust...
