"WOODEN" Go Cutters
#1
Has anyone seen these before? They are wooden. I wonder how they work. The prices don't seem too bad. http://cgi.ebay.com/5-Squares-wooden...item1c1dd1850c

Going by looks, these are for use in the "professional" size machines. We had one at a local craft store that if you bought the paper you could use the machine. They no longer have the machine so have not tried it on fabric. They are placed on a large metal tray with the wooden side down, your paper placed on top and then the tray is rolled thru the machine.

These on ebay are often "knock-offs"...they come with No warranty and No guarantee to work! often they are the ones that customers have returned and the company sells them to these guys at a really low price and they end up on ebay!
Do be careful and ask lots of questions before buying one of these!

In the PRESS down machines you use them just the opposite. THe fabric is laid on the cutting surface and die placed on top and then you press down on the lever and it squeezes the die and cuts!
