Abstract: A manually operated modified bolt cutter is placed in a fixture supporting a bolt cutter in a reversed operating position allowing the operator to cut small dimension materials using a one hand or arm pushing motion instead of the two hand or arm compression motion. The fixture holding the bolt cutter is fixedly mounted on a bench or like support and has two upright members between which is held one handle of the bolt cutter. Bolts through the side members and one handle support the bolt cutter in the fixture. When the moveable handle is in a near vertical position the jaws of the cutter are open. When the moveable handle is pushed away from the operator, toward the rear of the cutter, the jaws close making the cut. The moveable handle is bent at an angle to decrease the operator's wrist to arm angle.
