Kirley Posted October 17, 2014 Share Posted October 17, 2014 For anyone who has spent endless hours cutting plasticard I would recommend a Sylmasta Guillotine Multi-Angle, it speed up the cutting and provides, for me anyway, a more accurate cut every time. This is their Web Site: http://www.sylmasta.com/acatalog/Guillotine-Multi-Angle-977.html#SID=194 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dave182 Posted October 17, 2014 Share Posted October 17, 2014 Kirley, thank you thank you thank you!! I've wondered if this existed and apparently it does! No matter how hard I try, when I'm doing production line type batches I can never just get completely acurate cuts. Thanks for that tip!

Mayner Posted October 18, 2014 Share Posted October 18, 2014 (edited) Micro Mark and North West Shortline in the US produce similar tools for cutting plasticard. The Duplicutter & Duplicate-it have an adjustable stop and is great for accurately cutting large multiple parts such as wagons sides, ends, floors. http://www.micromark.com/duplicate-it,9546.html I have also used the Duplicutter with an Offra Cutter for scribing planking on wagon bodies. The Chopper & Chop-it are guillotines with adjustable stops great for cutting multiple parts in plasticard or stripwood. http://www.micromark.com/chop-it,9547.html I have a NWSL Chopper & a Duplicutter both of which must be getting on for 20-25 years. When the hardboard under the blade gets worn with cutting I just fill the groove with plastic filler and keep going.
