Review on πŸ’ͺ DEWALT DCS491B: Powerful Swivel Shear for Precise Cutting Performance by Cody Stroop

Revainrating 3 out of 5

Not very good for cutting 26 GA ribbed roof sheet metal.

I purchased this tool to build corrugated roof barns with metal siding. As someone said, these scissors only work well on straight cuts. If you try to cut ribbed panels, they don't work very well. Let's get back to the Makita cordless shears. I think I'll keep them just in case and add them to my collection of Dewalt 20V tools.

Pros
  • Tool-free 360 degree swivel head that allows the user to reach hard-to-reach areas
Cons
  • Expensive
