I just dun mine with a little hand saw and scissors for the slats, looks perfect☺️

[@tazzo2211]

Love the way you used angle grinder in the house and sparks flying over the settie 😂 kids don't try this at home.

Thanks for a really helpful video.
I practiced with the slat cutter on a spare slat i had from reducing the drop.
Reducing the drip is well worth while as it takes weight. This is especially useful for cheap blinds with a plastic headstock: i didn't do it with my old blind, which is why i need a new blind now, 9 years later.

Hot metal sparks inside the house on a wooden floor with soft furnishings all around are you sure?

[@DanielJohnHowTo]

wouldn't advise anyone else doing it

[@gorringeman]

Now blinds fit but the house burnt down using angle grinder indoors

You're welcome!

[@loXtrovoXunXnome]

I cut mine with a table knife, slats and main part lol
Just stick all together with some tape so they don't move around

[@CurrencyCrafting]

Lol they told me you can use a hacksaw to cut the headrail. I tried and tried and tried the saw broke in 3 prices 😂😂

[@freebuilder007]

How about cut the stack in a chop saw? Gotta choose the right blade and vinyl gets hot if you let it.

[@supersarah5157]

I did this it works fine & easier

[@iamelektrikbludnb]

So.........He NEVER did use the awesome tool to CUT the slats?!
Don't you think an example of that cutting tool in use may have been helpful?!

[@markbaldwin3749]

Great point...I've just gone through 2 today....broke first time....bought from dunelm..terrible tool ...£ 3.50 worth of rubbish!!

[@waynecatherall9082]

can you use this blind cutter on wooden blinds?

[@zen.life66]

You only need a pair of tin, snips, or a pair of garden pruners. to trim the slats. You don't need to buy gadgets. Hope that helps.

[@freebuilder007]

I can see a baking sheet and a pitcher of water being handy

[@brostv7332]

Did this dude just used angle grinder inside his home 😅😅😅and posted it on RUclips 😅😅😅

[@2icelollys1goat]

Loved this video, but grinding cutting inside over a wood veneer floor😂

[@dalebreedlove3172]

Aluminum header wouldn’t produce sparks. I bundle my blinds together and cut them all at once

[@dilligaf2386]

I lay the blind out straight and with a straight edge mark with pencil and scissors takes me 5 minutes. Good video though.

[@yohanmully]

Is this guy really blowing sparks in his living room

[@JCNxp]

I thought tab burns in your furniture was the big problem these days never mind furniture melted from sparks by using grinder indior 😂😅
