    i used scissors. but im sure there is a better way. just make sure when you cut it that the opening isn't closed.

      Box Cutter...

      I usually just use a box cutting knife. Works fine for me. Just make sure that you get a nice clean cut and you should be all set.

        Sweet I tried scisors on a scrap peaice and it didnt give me a great flush cut so ill try a box cutter. Im assuming it needs to be a very flush cut. Thanx again

        any other suggestions?

          I have some Macroline cutters if anyone needs them. Other than that, a utility knife works the best.

                I prefer a swiss army knife, box cutters aren't very stylish

                  Box cutters can be a little tough on the fingers when cutting. Just borrow one of moms new sharpe kitchen knives

                      I actually used scissors then sanded it with a nail file (lol). But at least the cut was completely flush first time, and everything worked fine. Didn't take a lot of effort....but a lighter or a blowtorch would take no effort hehe. I think Im gonna try that tonight to see how easy it is.
