I have a Godhand nippers. Found them very good. A 100% improvement on the generic pair I had from Amazon when I started 18 months ago. Clean cut with little or no cleaning up after the cut.

Nice Doug, top of the line stuff. I have similar DSPAIE cutters and think they save me a couple of hours a kit on clean up. Completely different animal to wire cutters aren’t they….

I got the nippers after your buying the DSPIAE nippers and your comments about their effectiveness. I was torn between the two but wallet won the day.
 
Thats a bit smaller than your normal projects Peter.
 
Basics.
Who told me about IPA. Never heard of it this time last year!! Now - great for so many things. Least of all finding those little nicks in your fingers you forgot about until you dip your digit in the stuff!!!!
Can't have enough now!!

Mine's 99.9% alcohol what's your brown IPA - 8%!!!!
Give me 8% anyway!!!! Wait - I don't drink anymore!!!!!! (Believe that and you'll believe anything!!) Although I do prefer a nice rum or gin these days. ATM its Pirates Fingers rum!!
 
The straight alcohol version comes in a variety of strengths (60 to 99 per cent). Sometime paint remover. Great degreaser. Helps break surface tension when used to assist scale gardening. Wouldn't be without it.
 
Isopropyl alcohol makes an excellent vinyl record cleaner at about 50% strength as well Paul. Just add one drop of photo flow to a pint and they come up like new.
 
Vol 4 of Tirpitz

One more for the set, very impressive research. Hundreds of photos
