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 used to use guillotine with plastic 50p tersco ruler attached to it with tapeso i know how much vinyl to pull. but now I invested couple of hundrets in to 24" cutter so not having this problemany more.

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.
