Not totally ruined, but still useless...
So, need to find a new pair.
Would love to hear what my fellow SPAM collegues are using as their cutter !

I dropped my beloved single blade nipper on the floor, as a matter of fact on the carpet... and this was the result..

Re: Sucks!
It looks usable for small attachment points until you acquire a replacement… 
I think my nipper is made by Xuron.

Re: Sucks!
I use teeth, #11: blade, Tamiya cutters, I think there is a xuron somewhere. Basically, the Tamiya are what I use, though.
To make each build less crappy than the last one. Or, put another way, "Better than the last one, not as good as the next one!"..

Re: Sucks!
I have been using Tamiya cutters that look just like that for some years and they are excellent.

Re: Sucks!
I have the Xuron and the old stand by ordinary hardware store nippers. I’d love to get the Godhand nippers but they’re priced ridiculously.

Re: Sucks!
The light blue handled Xuron one. Replaced my black handled Testors snipper that lasted me the previous decade or so.

Re: Sucks!
I use the same one that you have here. Had them for almost a year. They are the best cutters I've ever used I can't see godhands being any better but will probably go for them next just to find out.

Re: Sucks!
I use have these DSPIAE nippers. Fortunately I got them for my birthday from my in-laws because they are quite expensive.

Re: Sucks!
I too use the Xuron orange handle ones.
The real question is, how hard is that carpet that it broke metal clippers?

Re: Sucks!
Copy that. But they're worth it. Super clean cuts and great handling. They should last a long time, if you don't...BorgR3mc0 wrote:I use have these DSPIAE nippers. Fortunately I got them for my birthday from my in-laws because they are quite expensive.
