Cuts everything I need like a dream.
From paper to cardstock to lamination 10 mil thick, this paper trimmer cuts everything I need!
The size is just right fitting everything up to 12x12" which is perfect for scrapbooking and my use making planner dividers, inserts, and more. The rulers on here are fantastic and very easy to read. You even have some preset sizes on the ruler and grid on the cutter itself that provides you with a great guideline to where to cut and which direction to go.
It was a bit of a trick to realize that you were cutting the width and length the way you needed to cut them first but once I got the hang of which way to cut first it was nothing but easy. I have cut up to 5 sheets of regular computer paper, up to 4 pieces of 24lbs paper, and 2 cardstock at once. I have only attempted to do one 3mil, 5mil, and 10mil lamination sheets at once due to accuracy.
What I absolutely love the most about this paper trimmer is that in side of the cutter itself there is a very thin wire that lines up exactly where you're going to trim. This wire is centered exactly where the blade will run and no more guessing just about how far along the blade will be from the edge of the line underneath like other trimmers. The wire guides you exactly where you'll be cutting to give perfectly straight and precise cutting each and every time.
**tip** Try cutting some tinfoil to sharpen the blade up some! Works like a charm. Although, the blade comes very sharp and will not need sharping for some time after a good amount of use.
