Rotary Cutter on Straight Edge You Can Use on Mats?

Mar 06, 2011 1 Replies

Does anyone make a rotary cutter that slides along a straight edge that you can lay down on a mat and use in any direction?



I of course know about hand held rotary cutters, but those aren't good for laying down a precise straight line cut.



A traditional rotary cutter with a straight edge is built into a cutter board and so you are limited in the angles you can use it with.


I bought a drafting tool that has an adjustable angle (like a L-square or a triangle but adjustable). I lay that on my flatbed rotary cutter, then align my paper with the tool. Then I can cut any angle with it.

Try looking in a supply store that caters to engineers or architects. They have great tools!
