oops again, ordering some 1 mm and 1.5 mm brass rods , where can i purchase a cutter that will cut this size BRASS. GOD BLESS EVERYONE PLEASE STAY SAFE
 
Bonjour,

Vous rigolez I hope! No need such expensive equipments!
Don, just use any knife, inox blade or not, with no teeth of course, put the blade where you want to cut the rod and "roll" it under the blade, no need to press too much, some way-and-back short to begin and longer after...and your rod will be cut exactly where you want.
It works even for little pipes without crushing them.

Amicalement vôtre,
Bob
 
Don I use toenail clippers and I also have end cutters from the dollar store inexpensive and quick and accurate. Their steel so they will cut brass easily and they stay sharp fairly long and can easily be sharpened with a light pass of a 1/2" sanding drum in your Dremel tool.
 
Hello Don,
I agree with all of the above Dremel or a small hacksaw with a clean up of cuts on a disc sander I must admit Ive not tried toenail clippers.
