Not only that but it is quality, being a Dahle and all. It's fun to share our passions with others who can relate. No desk today, should have shared it though as it has STUFF on it. And I dared the cats to mess with it. They are cats so I'm sure they will take the dare. Unless they are too busy napping.

I think I even got rid of all those portable rotary cutters.

I'm glad you were able to maintain your composure!! I'd be beet red and totally stammering as the conversation progressed! LOL! <br /><br />After my old faithful Fiskars Ultimate Craft Trimmer died, I went through 3 or 4, but none were "right". Then I found the Stampin'UP trimmer...LOVE IT! I added the optional rotary arm (not sure if that is still available) and it is perfect. Enjoy your Holiday. <br />-K #34Kimhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05025260681578763572noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-218645565952627143.post-19494083690042743172017-06-21T14:05:44.224+01:002017-06-21T14:05:44.224+01:00THAT is a definite smirk on Nigels face.

Trimmers - we all have lots of them. I seem to have two of the Crafters Companion Clevercut A4 Rotary Trimmer (I remember now that I won one in a local craft shop giveaway), some smaller ones that I never use now - and my wonderful A3 Guillotine one (again Crafters Companion), which annoyingly is not big enough for the massive pads of watercolour paper I buy now to make journals with, so I have to cut them down using scissors (shock horror!) and then put them through the guillotine to square them up. I am always in awe of people who can use a cutting knife accurately.

Now that's what I call a guillotine. It's similar to the one I have access to at work in the art room. At home my favourite is a Carl Cutter (although it's branded as Create and Craft). I have had it for years and haven't had to replace the blade yet.

I'm sure most of you will agree! Trimmers! love them and hate them! I've probably thrown as many away as I've kept but I do have a few Rotary trimmers but don't think any are as good as my Tonic Guillotine. Not sure where I got week 420 from but I've obviously slept through a week somehow!
