The vinyl-siding-cutter and tools
The vinyl-siding-cutter and the rest of the tools are all very inexpensive. There are only a few actual vinyl siding tools that you will need.
You won't really need a saw for cutting the vinyl because it's so easy to cut with vinyl shears. If you want to get a perfect cut though, a Skilsaw with a vinyl-cutting blade will do the job.
The vinyl cutting saw blade makes even cuts when you have a lot of panels to cut. You can get almost the same affect by turning a normal skilsaw blade around backwards for cutting vinyl.
The vinyl shears make short work of a lot of cutting. They aren't as dangerous as a skilsaw and they are convenient to use anywhere.
The snap lock lug punch is one of the few tools you will actually need to have. It punches the lugs into the top piece of vinyl that fits into the utility trim.
The zip tool is great for pulling vinyl panels apart when removing old vinyl. It's also a good pry tool for new installations.
