One of my favorite tools, my Xuron Maxi-Shear® Flush Cutters, died. Tools don't live forever, especially if you work them hard everyday. If these Xurons were a pet, they would have been a loyal dog. Luckily had two pair...but now the other one is lonely. So, I will have a buy a nice, new, bright orange handled companion for it.

R.I.P. my lovely Xuron

Oh my goodness..... I saw your post in Google Reader, and I just skimmed the text and thought I read "FLESH Cutters!!!" Yikes!
ReplyDeleteSoooo glad they're just FLUSH cutters :~)
Sorry to hear about it, I understand the bond between favorite creative utensil & artist! I bet the bright orange ones won't seem the same..... :~/
Oi vey I hate when trusted tools break. You go to replace them, but the new ones just arent the same. Well, heres hoping you find an even better set of cutters.
ReplyDeleteXuron saw this blog post and is sending me a free replacement pair! WOW!
ReplyDeleteI am a Xuron devotee as well and blogged about it! Check it out at
