Digital BW, The Print

Tim..
I've got the same LOGAN cutter as Jerry..I believe it's a model "750"..It
works great, and I've used it for 16x20's as well..They also make a
glass-cutting tool to work with this unit for less than $20..It's neat for
salvaging those LARGE 20x24 pieces that somehow get chipped on the way
home..at least you can cut your own 11x14's or a 16x20 from that same
piece....You can't go wrong buying this mat cutter..It does the job as well
as units costing 2-3x its price..
