Re: OT: Quality Paper Cutter...

2004-01-15 by tronicart

I just bought a 15" Rotatrim from B&H and am having problems with 
some of my photos "slipping" under the stopping metal ruler (what you 
push the paper up against, to square it up).  It slips under at the 
end closest to the cutting edge, right by the "0" on the cutting 
board.  Is this happening with anyone else?  It's really annoying as 
after cutting, I realize part of the photo slipped under and turned 
the photo, making my cut crooked!  Plus this thing wasn't cheap..

thanks,

 -daniel perez
