Re: Recommendations for a new guillotine/cutter

Post by Justin »

Looking for a new cutter. Been using an A4 Dahle Personal Trimmer for years but tend to go back to a scalpel and metal ruler to get things perfect.

Only really need an A4 but something that will be far more precise for mug transfers. I wonder if a guillotine would be better than a rotary trimmer?

Any ideas? :smile:

Scalpel and metal rule for short runs or if I have a big run of the same print I use my electric guillotine.

We have both lurking around here... I tend to favour the rotary trimmer for almost everything. Scalpel and Steel rule for fiddly work.
