Hi All,
Anyone have a good way of cutting the "tails" off zip ties when doing electrical work on the boat? Every time I work on my electrical stuff (or plumbing, etc., where there are zip ties) I look like I've been in a knife fight afterwards. I always get cut. I cut the tails with wire cutters. Quick, easy, but leaves a sharp edge. Box cutter or razor blade works, but it cumbersome in tight corners and using a razor blade is about as dangerous and damaging.
Sizzors work, but not as easy and difficult in tight spaces. Is there some other magical tool/process you use for this dilemma?
Thanks
Larry
