/diy/ - Do It Yourself

Grandfather retired from maintenance job, had a pair of these laying around, and gave one to me. Klein Tools INS-1005, rated for working on 1000v systems (not that'd test that, but the insulation is beefy enough to make me believe them). These are the toughest cutters I own, and I've been using them for brute for shit but I recently realized that they're actually somewhat nice. Thankfully I haven't abused them to the point of damaging the blades and I'll be treating them much better now. Plastic and copper only for these guys from now on.
