Hi there! I have a quick question re shears - I use mine a lot
(probablytoo often given the thickness of the sheet that I am trying
to cut, instead of a hand saw) and have noticed that my better pair
seems to leave a mark (a line/groove) parallel to the cut line. Are
they in need of sharpening? Or is it the nature of this type of
tool? When I use a saw to cut strips of sheet, at some point I stall,
fingers in my non-dominant hand spasm painfully, AND I usually break
the saw blade! I am hopingthat there are better solutions? Would a
guillotine cutter be a good option for straight lines? Or, is there
a way to secure the sheet/object, other than using my non-dominant
hand, to avoid trigger fingers from holding/stabilizing the sheet?
Many thanks! Ros
