Hi all

I have heard that the best sprue cutters out there are by Xuron and the average price on fleabay is around the £20 mark. I searched around a bit and found a company called Heamar that were doing the ' maxi-shear flush cutter 2175' for £10.76 with Vat so treated myself.

The cutters I have used a couple of times now and there great a nice clean cut everytime and you can get close to the part without damaging it. Well worth it and looking like many years service in them.

The entire range of Xuron cutters are the best that money can buy, not cheap but engineered to last and high quality

I've been using the Zuron micro-shear cutters for a few years now and are still performing well.
