Putting together my first kit, and all similar beginner tip/trick Reddit threads are dead to me ๐Ÿ˜ค So I'd love to get one going here! Any tips/tricks you have to help out??

Never used single blade God hands before but from what I understand it's recommended to not use it for cutting off runners and use a cheaper pair of nippers for that, but afterwards for close cuts? But, to avoid hard plastics like clear ones since it can break them?

Wanted to make sure for beginners which I am. I also saw people saying it can rust if not oiled or something?

Yeah, good clarification on the god hands. That is how I use mine, for the second cut.

Never had mine rust, though I keep them in a reasonably dry place.
