I'm sure it is a nice machine. But if my sheet metal snips do the trick, why buy something else?

I had a few small circuit boards to cut up just now and tried my sheet metal snips. It is a rather massive hand tool, not the ones with the thin jaws. It cut through the FR4 easily and with good control. When the ships are dull, it is easy to re-sharpen it.
