Never had a leak. After the first couple it gets pretty easy.

I do the exact same thing and it's no big deal......You may need a little practise, but as Woodz says, after a few you get the hang of it......
One other thing I do, is after cutting my hose, always blow out the hose with air and then with a piece of copper wire (stripped romex) with a clean cloth on the end to get out any debris left from cutting the hose...........
It's not that hard, unless you "ravel" the wire ends, in that case, re-tape the end and re-cut it............
