Flush Cut Your Cable Ties!
If I could pass one piece of knowledge onto every person in the electronics industry it would be this: always flush cut your cable ties. I am tired of having my forearms sliced up by sharp cable ties every time I reach inside a piece of equipment. So remember, safety first, cut your ties flush. Besides, flush ties just look nicer.

For home use, I even use a sharp knife to cut off the tie because there is much less of a sharp point left behind and you can cut even closer.
Just watch your thumb or keep a piece of hard plastic/wood behind the tie when cutting.Posted 2nd April 2011 at 06:51 AM by ßart West-VL.

I forgot to mention to cut from one side to another, not flat on the tie.Posted 2nd April 2011 at 06:56 AM by ßart West-VL.
