my guillotine dilemma - continued...

I never did reach a satisfactory conclusion with regards to my ongoing guillotine dilemma - I bought the purple cows one, which went back as it was too big and bulky, so I then bought one I found on special offer from cutting edge crafts which is a rotary trimmer, but not as accurate as my good old faithful "squeaky", although it has inch marks which I find really useful. I then also bought a small A5 XCut guillotine, which is great, fairly accurate, but doesn't have inch marks. So, if I want to cut large pieces of 12 x 12 to, say 5 x 5, I use my rotary, but for smaller cuts I use my Xcut. I'm still not happy, and am now looking for the best grease to un-squeak squeaky!! So, I will draw a winner of my blog candy anyway, as you all had so many useful comments to make - I'll go and do this in a little while and come back with a winner ...

well the A5 Xcut is what sits on my desk, or falls off it, and is the one I use all the time. There is a bigger A4 in the range but I've resisted getting it a I have 2different rotary ones allready! hugs, annie x
