Magnum shear

[Don Monfils]

I brought my old I-13 Pro shear back from the dead. I used to store it on a shelf over the wheel well of my old trailer. I didn’t realize the wheel well had some holes it, and the tool took on moisture for who knows how long.It completely froze up on me .
It took it apart today and cleaned it up with my oscillating tool with a sanding pad and a scotch- brute pad. I put a little plumbing silicone on the post. It works as good as new.
I don’t use the tool a lot. I have a 27” shear also but that thing is a lunker to carry into jobs.

Nice job. Tools need love too.

Looks like new. I have the original 13" Bullet shear, all metal deck, massively over engineered. Been at least 8-9 years since I changed the blade, still cuts the same. I don't do much installing anymore, and most guys just use the utility knife to score and snap.
It sure made me a lot of money over the years.

I only really use mine for engineered hardwood these days. I'm due for a new blade but it still works fine. I did have to give it a lube job yesterday because it was sticking shut. Little WD and I'm back in business.
I only have the 13". Never had a need for anything bigger. A few years ago it looked like the wider tiles were going to be a thing. Thought about getting the big sheer. But they never really took off.

My Magnum hasn’t gotten much use since most products are score n snap anymore. Everything else and I gotta break out the Don Monfils patented Jig Pro.

Guess I missed the Jig Pro.
