If anyone can tell me what this tool is specifically used for I'll send you a 4pc set of Align brand metric wrenches on me. First correct answer in the thread wins. GO!

*HINT* This tool is not used specifically in the RC hobby although it can be :)

Its for cutting heat shrink all the same length...whatever length you want :)

🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 they have a actually tools for that.. because a razor or knife is to hard to use??? Only a IT electric engineer need would have one of those... good job FOG well done 👍👍
 
It was kinda unfair because my dad had something very similar. Otherwise I would have had no clue.

The wrenches would likely be wasted on me though. Send them to Retro Kevin. It was his guess that gave me the flashback.

I told you I was an epic nerd for having them...with scissors its harder to make sure they are the exact matching lengths I need 🤣🤣🤣

Fair nuff. @RetroKevin PM me your mailing address :)
 
I use a razor for everything, no holder just a blade. I guess I'm old school.
Lol! I'm that way at work, I do a lot of cutting and I use a plain single sided razor blade, everyone around me cringes, especially when I hold it I'm my lips so I can flip something over. I never think about it I've been doing it that way so long.
 
I'm with Chubaka. OLD SCHOOL ALL THE WAY.. I get it.. you want to have exact sizes. And be consistent but that's why you just put the end againt a square edge and cut.. I don't use scissors.. I'm a knife or razor guy..but I do like the idea of that cool little MAN toy/tool 🤣🤣👍👍👍
