How to cut macroline?

[ugabiged88]

I know this is a stupid question, but I have never used macroline before and my hose is leaking.

Please reply quickly!

you can use a utility knife on a flat surface or go to your local hardware store and find a pair of shears or hose cutter

pocket knife... exacto knife... razor blade. Whatever works. Wouldn't use scissors.

Thanks!

I just hope that I can cut a straight line so that it doesn't leak.

Yeah, scissors are crap for macroline. They cut really jagged because you can't do it all in one motion, and that usually results in leakage on the end.

Karate chop it, Daniel son.

I use a PVC pipe cutter. Works great.

I took some macroline with me to metal shop one day and found the Hydraulic sheerer cut it wonderfully. But the Hydro sheer costs like $1500 so I don't think many people have it handy.

Use the tool designed for it...a macro cutter. Make sure you always check it by pushing it in till it pops in.

my mom has a Really nice pair of um branch clippers? (it only cuts small branches and you use one hand) And it make a perfect cut.. and i mean Perfect.

[IcantBelieveit]

i use a pair of side cutter, or wire cutter, or dykes or whatever you call them

Simple folding knife. I use a razor knife when it's available, but that generally damages the blade if you put oo much pressure on it.

Ever hear of a Schrade chip multitool?

[jaylock33]

When I used to use maceo I used dog nail clippers worked fairly well.

[Sparq]

Hmm...I have a set of those, I'll have to try it.

[ugabiged88]

Okay, I just used a knife and it cut it almost perfectly!

No leaking anymore.
