"You will have good results with 2 pair of offset compound leverage
snips, get left and right hand.  The cutting edge is below the mass of
the tool and you have excellent control.  over cut a bit if the
complexity requires it to allow finishing with a fine file and
sandpaper."
Stephen McGehee

Stephen,
These offset compound leverage snips, will they cut at least 16 gauge
copper and not distort the cut edge?  As my reply to Mike Graf indicates
I did not make it clear if I was talking ounces or gauges.  I am talking
gauges just because I am familiar with thickness rather than mass.  Just
the center of this door will have 4 copper triangles cut and mated to
form a diamond.  All the cuts must meet exactly with no distortion in the
copper.
