: Book? What book??
: Rob, have you ever tried a rotary cutter? I bought a Fiskars one at
: JoAnne's three or four boats ago and LOVE it! Skip the little
: cutting mat ..... I keep half a sheet (2.5' x 5') of 1/4"
: Baltic birch in my sheet goods rack to serve as a cutting board
: (sand till snag-free), so cutting bias strips is actually pretty
: darn easy. The hardest part is getting the big cutting board out
: and putting it back up right away so it stays clean and
: undamaged. Both rotary cutter and cutting board are strictly
: dedicated to fiberglass and carbon fiber only, and so far have
: stayed good as new a lot longer than expected.
My kayak instruction book, I sell it without a full set of plans.
Guess I need to show it without plans and talk it up.
I know, it's not pretty like Nick's. But since I desktop publish it, I can change and update it.
I have a rotary cutter and pad, yes the pad is small. And yes, it's hard to lay out glass
and have a large clean surface. When I'm working there are no large clean surfaces around!
Cutting glass dulls blades. Doesn't the rotary cutter get dull? Can it be sharpened?
I find my sharp scissors fast and easy. And I can resharpen.
Sorry about the "Hey" business.
Rob
