Description of πŸ”ͺ Cutterpillar Pro ABS Composite Plastic Paper and Photo Trimmer with Enhanced LED Backlighting for Professional Use

Precision paper and photo trimmer has a gear driven rotary blade for perfect cuts through almost any stock. Bright LED backlight illuminates the cutting line for completely accurate trimming.

A must for papermakers

For a while I avoided buying the incredible Cutterpillar just because it was expensive. Didn't realize it was $100. However, after numerous failed attempts and the damaged box, I shied away and bought it. The cutterpillar is AMAZING and accurate. No more easily disordered cards and papers. Always a straight and precise cut! Guillotines are good, but they quickly turn into paper shredders after minimal use, and ruler cutters rely too heavily on even pressure, often resulting in a wavy edge and…

Pros
  • The new ABS composite construction is deceptively strong, yet lightweight. Soft rubber feet provide stability and prevent slipping
Cons
  • Doubtful

Good idea, needs improvement!

Thanks everyone for your replies that helped me with the battery case! I've attached a video showing mine not bouncing! Thanks for the curious answer, because that was the only way to open it! I like the size and I like the blade. The concept of this trimmer was good but they could have added features to make it easier to hold the paper while cutting! You could add a magnet stick or something to hold the paper in place. If you don't get your fingers close to the cutting edge when starting and…

Pros
  • Bright LED light illuminates the cutting line for an absolutely precise cut. The built in ruler measures both imperial (US) and metric units
Cons
  • Expensive

Blade snags on metal rail

I got this for Christmas and have used it maybe 6 times. To this day, I only use it to cut thin design paper for postcards. I tried to cut 4 sheets at a time, the blade hung on the guide and wouldn't go any further (cut from top to bottom. When I cut from bottom to top it seems normal). Today I tried to cut 1 sheet of the Neenah Solar Crest 110lb Cover and the blade got stuck in 3 different places along the way. Like there are chips in the caterpillar that won't let the blade roll smoothly, but

Pros
  • Holds paper up to 12" wide, full base ruler up to 13" long
Cons
  • Not as thick as other picks
