Reddit reviews Fiskars SureCut Portable Trimmer with Recycled Cutline, 12 Inch Cut, Black

I don't know of any stores, but I make my washi thinner by sticking long strips of it to some wax paper and using a paper trimmer to slice it down to size. Then I just cut it to size when needed.

This is the trimmer I use

Sorry for the shitty link. I'm on mobile.

I laminate most of my character sheets, reference cards, summary pages and so forth

I print my inserts using red river glossy photo paper (legal size for the universal game case boxes) and use a fiskars paper trimmer for cutting- this is much easier and quicker and is like $12 from amazon : http://www.amazon.com/Fiskars-Titanium-SureCut-Trimmer-01-005454/dp/B003SLC3IU/ref=sr_1_5?ie=UTF8&qid=1459090730&sr=8-5&keywords=fiskars+paper+cutter

There are a few things to consider. First, the guillotine seems great but it isn't very accurate and requires more work than you think (the repetition). Fiskars 12 Inch Recycled SureCut Trimmer (01-005454) https://www.amazon.com/dp/B003SLC3IU/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_apa_0n9CAbS90N938 This option is cheaper and more accurate. The blade is also easily replaceable. Don't do more than 1 sheet at a time. Can it be done? (Yes) But will it always off by a little? (Yes)

I have made extensive use of card stock terrain and have learned. There is also the high end option of purchasing a cutting machine but that is $100+ to get started.

I print them on 90lb cardstock. You can get a ream of the stuff on Amazon, it's pretty cheap:

Then I cut them out using one of these:

Not hard to do at all, just takes a little bit of time.

I have a little experience with Stahls. I'm happy with them. I have more experience with Avery. I'm not happy with them.

For light duty cutting I use this. https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B003SLC3IU/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o05_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1

But I'll tell you that it's really not capable of cutting more than 3-5 sheets of paper at a time if that. I cut single transparencies and such with it all the time.

This is the one I have.

Works well for trimming sleeves or cutting printed dividers for games like Marvel Legendary.

Thank you so much for your thorough reply! This was immensely helpful; I never knew that there was so much to learn about paper! 110lb Index it is!

I'll be sure to get a rotary trimmer as well.

Is there much of a difference other than sheet capacity between the rotary cutter you recommended and a cheaper one? (e.g.http://www.amazon.com/Fiskars-Titanium-SureCut-Trimmer-01-005454/dp/B003SLC3IU/ref=sr_1_11?ie=UTF8&qid=1457236889&sr=8-11&keywords=rotary+paper+trimmer)

Also, sorry for all the paper questions, but do you think 80lb cover paper would be better? Or is that coated and therefore unsuitable? http://www.amazon.com/Hammermill-Color-Digital-Sheets-120023/dp/B000J0C47S/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1457238143&sr=8-1&keywords=80lb+cover

Thank you for your time!
