Cutters Mate

Feb 23, 2006 6 Replies

I cut Bullseye glass. I cut 1/2" x 20" strips as well as many 4x4's



5x5's. Will the cutters mate cut straight and precise measured sizes? I also would like to cut circles up to 15". Would you recommend the cutters mate for these applications? Which one would be best for me? What attachments would I need to accomplish both of these tasks. I cut glass every day so I am also looking for something with a good life span.

Thanks Shawn



Get a Morton system for the straight cuts.

are many good circle cutters on the market.

you need a strip cutter. there's one (albeit very expensive) in the bullseye catalog.

the cutter's mate isn't a strip cutter.

What Jack said. As for a circle cutter, get a Fletcher...suction cup is the best. However, I have found that for most Bullseye, the suction cup doesn't get a good suction so you will have to hold the suction cup as you turn the arm...but still good nonetheless.

I was trying to remember the name of my circle cutter. The suction cup is great.

I'll second (or third?) the recommendation for the Morton grid. Great for all kinds of straight cuts.
