Do you think you could develop the hose cutter accidentally built a bit more 
to make something that could automatically cut pneumatic tubing to length? 
Was the cut sharp and at 90 degree angles to the hose end, or did it come 
out jagged and at an odd angle?  The worst possible thing that could happen 
IMHO, would be bad, angular hose ends that slide on and force one to make 
the hoses angle a bit on the plastic connector block instead of being 
straight and true.
