Customer Rating:      Summary: Dust reducer/moderate cutting speed/faster than jigsaw Comment: My husband is in the home repair business and has been residing a portion of a house. Shears do reduce dust. I've been using shears for about 4 weeks now on 5/16 x 8 1/4 Hardilap. Sometimes the shears seem to get stuck. Sometimes they seem to crush the material...we discovered that pulling up on the handle made cutting easier, although this is when the worst crushing occurred. We have tilted the shears to the left and to the right and really haven't found that they always cut easy. This may have to do with the nature of shears in general and not necessarily this brand. I'm glad I had the resources to purchase them and try them. This shear is worth the money. I would definitely recommend owning a pair of shears if you are going to do a little bit of this kind of work. I am not sure how they compare to other brands, although we read some test reports. For the most part, cutting skill can be improved with a little patience. By the way, when cutting fiber cement siding with a circular saw, diamond tooth or whatever, it helps to have an assistant blow the dust away with a leaf blower. Dust has a tendency to find its way inside of respirators, no matter which type of respirator or mask that is used.
Customer Rating:      Summary: A must have! Comment: I am NOT a builder. I am a person that believes that if you pay attention, that you can do most anything that you pay other people to do! I wanted to side my Modern Box shaped home with Hardiplank. I tried score and break and "the saw"....(still can't breathe right) :-) I read about these shears and a light went off! I gotta try these!!! They are GREAT! I am STUNNED at how clean they cut and they make almost no mess. I made a few bad measures and even cut the correct length while the board was already hung! I am sure that a few may have other opinions...but my house went up quick and clean and messless thanks to these great shears. Buy them!
Customer Rating:      Summary: Fiber cement shears Comment: This shear works well and curls a 1/4-inch strip instead of creating dust. It sometimes smashes the edge of the fiber cement plank instead of a clean cut - not sure why this happens, I have been trying various methods of support to stop this. A pass or two with a rasp cleans up the edge if needed. It actually cuts very quickly. I have only used it on 5/16-inch siding boards.
Customer Rating:      Summary: Exellent! Comment: Upon recommendation I tried this brand and it is a true professional tool. I is so smooth and easy to use and is quiet and powerful. I highly recommend this tool over its competition.
Customer Rating:      Summary: Must Have cutter for hardi plank or hard board Comment: Wow, I heard so many horror stories about cutting hardiplank. This handy little device, though a little pricey, proved to be worth every penny. It makes cutting hardiplank downrigh boring and predictable. Yes there are some curled cuttings to pick up, but the ease of cutting is worth the small inconvenience. Then it occured to me that I can use this for hard board cement backing for tile work. I wish I had this when I tiled the bathroom. Great product.
