  • Multipurpose tool - small pipe cutter can be used to trim stiff wire insulation.

    I was trying to trim the insulation off of the 8awg PV wire. That is some tough insulation. Even my new spin cutter (Will recommended) was having trouble. Then I noticed my 1/2" tubing cutter in the tool box. You know the small one for cutting copper pipe. You tighten and turn - repeat. It did a slick job on the stiff insulation cover - nice clean cut too.
    Thought I wold pass it on.
