 +Usually, cutting the end off a bolt requires sanding / filing the cut area to deburr / chamfer the end. \\ 
 +However, the Dremil tool cuts at a high speed with a thin cutting disc. \\ 
 +Keep the cutting blade perpendicular to the threads while cutting and, most of the time, deburring the cut end is optional or at least minimal. \\ 
 +There is no need to install a nut and back it off the threads as you would normally do when using a hack saw or grinder. \\
