The two most common devices for automatic cutting on the consumer market are the cricut and Silhoutte Cameo. It's fairly straight forward to just cut squares out of the box, but it might not save you any time over a paper guillotine.

Also, I'd recommend just getting spray glue and making a mask for the gluing part. Spray glue is the best.

Got an HFS Guillotine-style Paper Cutter for my gf - https://www.amazon.com/HFS-Heavy-Guillotine-Paper-Cutter/dp/B00NO7PYYI/

​

Handle swivels up and down, and it's strong, so you can cart this sucker around.

​

The arm pops right off and fits between the cutter and the handle when it swivels up.

​

Grid on the platform.

​

It's just a beaut.

Hah, ok...I'll get a few more up before Christmas at least!

Ordered one of these bad boys just to keep this up for you all: http://www.amazon.com/HFS-Heavy-Guillotine-Paper-Cutter/dp/B00NO7PYYI

You didn't say so in the text, but I'm going to assume that you cut away the cover first and are just trying to remove the part that holds the pages bound together.

When bookbinders are putting those bindings in place, they also have to cut the pages square to make them line up. For this purpose, they use heavy-duty varieties of paper cutters, which cut the pages neatly and without mess.

Honestly, I'd recommend you visit a bookbinder, and just ask them to unbind those books for you; they have the tools and the skill. A circular saw cut (or any other saw cut, really) is never going to be clean unless maybe if you glued the pages together first, but that would defeat the purpose of what you're trying to accomplish.

Once laminating you'll need a paper trimmer too. The $10 kind work fine (this is mine https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B01MUB5MY5/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_search_asin_title?ie=UTF8&psc=1 but there are a hundred like it)

Tip: get both regular and matte laminating pouches. The regular keeps your colors bright and text super clear, but if it's something that lays flat on the table, the glare will kill you! Plus the matte finish feels ridiculously cool.

My husband treated me to a guillotine similar to this only larger, years ago when I got into paper hobbies. It works really really well! I don't use it for the books that I sell, as I deckle edge those, but I use it for all kinds of other projects. Just make sure you line things up properly and you'll be good to go :)

u/NimaSan · 2 pointsr/mildlyinteresting

It was this model I got to trim the edges of the books I make. Tabletop and hand levered, great for small at home projects.

u/LemonUdon · 2 pointsr/graphic_design

Are you looking for a guillotine style cutter? I currently use this one. A friend and I bought it several years ago when we did a lot of bookbinding, to help cut stacks of paper. So far, haven’t had any issues with it. I will say that it’s pretty heavy, so not great if you need something that can be easily transported around.

Should be able to cut thru 400 sheets according to the manufacturer. Highest we ever needed to go was ~250.

I'm in the UK but I've got one similar to http://www.amazon.com/Amzdeal-Guillotine-Capacity-Commercial-Photocopy/dp/B00BQGK1FQ?ie=UTF8&keywords=A3%20Guillotine&qid=1464348535&ref_=sr_1_4&sr=8-4
I've used it to cut 3mm millboard with some success (it cuts cross grain beautifully but along the grain needs some packing underneath and careful clamping)

I had to adjust the clamp on mine after arrival as it was causing the stack of paper to shift when cutting and end up being undercut, it's a 5 min fix though.

u/OdysseusX · 2 pointsr/boardgames

I'm not willing to spend three times the game price for an add-on like this. But if I was this is what I'd get.

This is the one I brought - my bad, I said eBay before but it was actually Amazon. I don't know why but there seem to be dozens of identical looking guillotines with different brand names at both A4 and A3 size. The US ones seem to be sold by HFS I may be wrong but my guess is they all come from the same factory in China and are simply rebranded.

I have to say I am very happy with mine. It is very solidly built (weighs about 60 pounds) but it takes up a lot of space - with hindsight, the smaller A4 model would have sufficed. However, it does the job really well. I don't want to belittle other peoples experiences, but I think that most of the problems that get highlighted in the reviews are caused by them not using it properly. The key is that the clamping bar that holds the book block in place for cutting needs to be really, really tight to stop movement which makes it look like it is cutting at an angle. After I'd worked that out I haven't had any problems. The blade is removable with care and you can sharpen it yourself.

However, unless you have lots of space in your workshop and you make lots of thick books that need trimming then if your local shop will continue to trim a book for $2.50, I'd stick with them.

I've had mine for a few years (didn't buy it for my current project), but I think it was this one or something like this one:
https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B01174H37K/

Mine is by no means a high quality cutter (it's a little off true), but with a little caution it works fast and easy. Just make sure you get one that's fairly large (the little ones intended for cutting four or five sheets at a time will not work. Any A4 or larger guillotine cutter should work with a little fiddling.

Based on the middling reviews on mine, you might be better off with this one: https://www.amazon.com/HFS-Heavy-Guillotine-Paper-Cutter/dp/B00NO7PYYI/

u/OutrageousButton · 1 pointr/Entrepreneur

Does it have to be electronic? Because that seems like overkill. I'd just pickup something like https://www.amazon.com/Westcott-ACM15106-Guillotine-Anti-Microbial-Protection/dp/B0058TW286 and be done. Or just order paper that's already cut in half.

We didn't print our invites, but we did print our STD's, programmes, menus and hen do invites.

This is the card we used, House of Card, 250gsm, pack of 100 for £5.99. In theory, if you're having A5 invites, this will give you 200... or 100 A5 invites and 100 A6 RSVPS and 100 A6 Info cards.

The card is a really lovely weight - a tiny bit floppy if using as full A4, but at A5 it feels great. Not flimsy at all. And worked a treat with our basic old £30 from Tesco inkjet printer. Has a really nice finish too.

Really, it's not that much of a faff. Buy extra card so you can practice - and invest in a good paper trimmer and you'll be golden. I originally bought a £10 one from Argos - it was rubbish and made my lines wonky. This works great!

If using thicker card (which you'll want to do for the weight), I recommend only feeding say 10-20 sheets into the printer at a time.

Non puoi arrenderti così, dai...

Per il forex puoi usare una taglierina da carta un po' seria. Se invece, come per me, ogni scusa è buona per comprare giocattoli nuovi, questo è un gran bel aggeggino.
