hi
does anybody buy larger sheets/rolls of vinyl and cut their own down to fit the craft robo?

if so what the quickest and best method you use?
surely you dont measure each peice and then cut with a guillotine or ruler and blade?
is there a guillotine with a measure stop available for a reasonable price?

thanks

I also tried to work out a way of cutting from rolls of vinyl but in the end invested in an A2 Rotary Trimmer back in 2008. This has worked well ever since for me, but I do not do very large volumes. Check out ABT Office Supplies Ltd and you can see some options available for trimmers/guillotines.
