Removing small, delicate plastic parts from sprue with minimal post-cut cleanup.
Clean cuts, different strengths
Redgrass Sprue Cutters and RGG Precision Nippers are both precision tools for removing parts from sprues, but they focus on slightly different strengths. Sprue Cutters give you more stability and strength on every cut, and they handle thicker sprues and tougher plastics with confidence. Precision Nippers are designed to cut as close and as clean as possible to the part you want off the sprue.
Many painters work with a single tool: cut the part from the sprue, then clean up what is left with a knife or similar.
Redgrass tools work great for that, as they leave minimal leftover material and make the cleanup step faster and easier.
With Redgrass Sprue Cutters, you get a strong, reliable cut that works well even on chunky gates and harder plastics, and leaves a surface that is easy to tidy up.
With RGG Precision Nippers, you can cut closer to the part on most sprue gates, which means less material left as a nub and less work to remove it.
If you want the cleanest result with the least stress on the plastic, using both tools in a simple two-step method is best.
Use the Sprue Cutters for the first cut a little away from the part to get it off the sprue, then switch to the Precision Nippers to make the final close cut on the remaining nub, especially on visible areas where every mark would show.

I have owned the precision nippers for ~1.5 years now and have absolutely loved them! I did have an issue where my first pair broke within the warranty period. Luckily, I was able to provide photos to Redgrass, and they helped replace them in a super timely manner. I was so happy as these are my favorites!
Sharpest so far for the money. Easy to use and feels good. Not too big so you can work securely to fit it close to the miniature and work it in most sprues without too much difficulty.
Can be a tad fragile, so don't cut at maximum width at the very tip of the cutters.
I needed a decent set of nippers to cut supports off of FDM prints, these didn't disappoint. PLA+ is actually pretty tough stuff and they are managing better than other makes.
