Victor,

To follow through with Dave's idea - take a peek at these pics.  I believe
that I could modify my cutter rollers in about an hour - a bit longer if the
rollers were hardened.  Definitely would want to take some of the excess
'play' out of the cutter guide assembly.

Definitely works for a T0-5, but won't work for some of the optical TO-92's,
or power TO-3's etc.  Not what I had used in the past, but if you don't have
too many to open and you can not locate a ready-made one .... it may be
worth a try.

PS - I am not pro or con on this particular tubing cutter.  Just happens to
be the one I recently purchased when my old one finally stopped cutting
properly.  This one is nice, however, because the cutting wheel assembly is
easily dis-assembled.

I believe that I picked this up at Lowe's or Menards {Home Improvement
Centers}
