Nice picture of the shell cutter. Picture this as a low tech alternative. Clamp a sharp kitchen knife in a vise, blade edge up. Place your shell over the end of a close fitting aluminum or hardwood dowel. Roll the shell over the blade like a rolling pin. Slide the cut off section of shell up the dowel and insert another shell. It is real fast and real easy. The time saving is in cutting directly around the shell rather than a spiral cut which many methods require.
