Straight Edge / Paper Trimmer

[Deleted member 88227]

So I've got this new bad ass printer that I've been printing some of my photos with on some nice glossy paper. The quality is okay (comparatively compared to nothing really) and I want to be able to trim/cut the prints down to size. What I mean is I will print two 4 x 6 photos on a single sheet (8 x 11.5) I know it waste paper... however it also allows me to print other sizes as well. What I would like to do is be able to cut/trim those pictures. I want a good quality trimmer/straight edge cutter. Cutting more than one page really isn't an issue since I'll most likely be doing this one at a time anyway.

So does anyone have any recommendations for a good quality paper trimmer? Feel free to suggest products on Amazon, since I'm a prime member.

I've always used a surgical scalpel with a stainless steel ruler for things like that. The cost is about the same, so it's really more about your preference.

Just my two cents.

I prefer a good quality rotary trimmer like

I seen those, wasn't sure how good they were. Think I might end up getting the one you linked.

As long as there is no "wobble" in the slide, one like that should be very accurate.

So is that the exact model (or same brand at least) as the one you have?

Same brand. Mine is larger for engineering drawings and poster prints (36").

Gotcha. Next pay day, I'll most likely go with it then. Should handle my small needs just fine. Thanks man.
