I have a pair of the older Xuron sprue cutters (Packaged by Testors) and I swear by them. Is this "pro" model that much better?

Oh heck yeah! I took something that was good and made it exceptional. The pair I displayed at the Nats had the guys who picked them up and cut up sprues drooling.

Besides they are made in the USA (Saco, ME) and have a lifetime warranty. What else would you expect from Xuron!

If anybody needs a testamonial about the new sprue cutters I wouldnt give them up at all. Plus Hawkeye is a great guy to deal with I've gotten 3 items from him.Nicely packaged and very quick I'd give him 4 thumbs up if I had 2 more hands lol....

Xuron's 2175ET Professional Sprue Cutter

You can order them from me HERE or from Sprue Brothers

I bought a set of these a few months back, a bit skeptical but my frustration in the past trying to get the parts off the sprues without damage was getting the better of me.

I love these new sprue cutters!  They cut so cleanly and cleaning up the nubs is almost fun now, with a pass or two of a sharp blade and no more filling the area with glue or putty to fix them!  I must admit, they are one of my favorite tools.

Highly recommended.

You guys will probablely laugh but I use a big ol toe nail cutter and I think it's just great.

Hopefully not on both at the same time...Ewww...that will give the smell of plastic a whole new meaning!

I think you should send me a free set to analyze and report on here.
