Take a piece of 1" wide masking tape and wrap it around the SCAT Tube where you want it to be cut. Then using a sharp razor blade cut on the edge that you want to use ... Careful there are two edges to the tape! When you reach the WIRE use a good pair of diagonal cutters (DIKES). Then bend the wire back and away from the SCAT Tube, far enough to give you a nice smooth wire free area, this is the area you clamp on. Then CUT OFF the striped back wire, leaving about 1" Then using a pair of needle nose pliers bend the 1" wire back 180 Deg to form a smooth edge ... this is so the wire does not cut a hole through the SCAT Tubing. That is it ... easy ... took me longer to write this than to do it. Barry "Chop'd Liver"
