Squeegee rubber cutting

[rugbywolf]

Here's a very simple and effective way I've devised of cutting squeegee rubbers, that I thought might interest everybody. I've been doing it this way for a month or so, and I find that the rubbers seem to work better and last that bit longer

Nice one rugby

Because my channels are cut and are quick release i take the channel out of the handle put the rubber in and lay on flat surface

Then just use scraper blade against the edge of the channel and push down to cut through rubber exactly where i want it

Yes, I used to do that, but this way you go straight onto the rubber, which will give a better cut with less pressure. I found pressing down with the scraper caused it to retract because of the pressure, and sometimes wanted to wobble.

I've used scissors for years, but, although I say it myself, this is better. Show me the vid.

There is a technique that has to be mastered and I think it may be a tad too technical for some of the bods on here. It's trial and error until you've mastered it I'm afraid.
