Snip Tips
This page is to give you a visual for how I do nipper placement when snipping specific murrini shapes. I use either Leponitt wheeled nippers or a Chipper Nipper. Not all wheeled nippers are created equal. Make sure your wheeled nippers are sharp and turned on a regular basis. Some designs only snip well with wheeled nippers and the Chipper Nipper won't be shown or vice versa. You may have a tool or position that gives you better results, so please do what works best for you.
