: Interesting, one question though, what's the tool you use to snip

I noticed that too. I've been using one of these for a few months myself. It's called an 'anvil cutter' , flat bottom jaw with blade top jaw.

This is the Canuckistan version. It works great. I cut all my coaming risers with it in no time flat.
