Jewelry designer Rose shows how to set the sliding gauge on this wire cutting jig to the length you want so you can cut jewelry wire, tubes and more to the exact same length every time.

STEP 1
Set the sliding gauge for the length of the tube or wire to be cut. Tighten down the screw to secure the slide gauge in place.
STEP 2
Open the thumb leaver then place the wire or tube in the "V" groove in the center of the jig. Replace the thumb leaver and hold it down.
STEP 3
Hold the jig or secure it in a bench pin or vise. Use a saw to cut the desired number of uniform lengths.
