What are some tried and true ways to cut thicker wires? I'm especially interested methods to cut #2 and #4 AWG.
Thanks in advance,
Jay

For thick/stiff # 2 or # 4 wire, I have used a dremel (heavy-duty)
cut-off wheel and a cut-off wheel in a die-grinder. Both make a
square/clean cut. JUST WEAR EYE PROTECTION WHILE DOING THIS. METAL
