Re: [BKARTS] Paper trimmer - Kutrimmer Prices

[Pedram Fanian <Pfanian@xxxxxxx>]

Dear Keith:
As a subscriber to the list and a dealer of  various paper trimmers, I can 
comment as follows:
Most kutrimmer cutters will handle 80 point  bookboard.  These models 
include: 1071 (28"), 1058 (22"), and 1038  (15").  I would not recommend the less 
expensive "office supply store"  calibre cutter for bookboard as they lack the 
heavy duty construction as well as  the accuracy needed in bookbinding.
For you information, here are the prices  (guaranteed lowest in North 
America) for the mentioned Kutrimmer  models:
#1038 - 15.0" cut length / 50 sheets -  US$328
with adjustable side gauge & strip cutting mechanism

#1058  - 22.5" cut length / 40 sheets - US$498
with adjustable side gauge &  strip cutting mechanism

#1071 - 28.0" cut length / 40 sheets  US$588
with adjustable side gauge & strip cutting mechanism

***  FREE SHIPPING for the continental USA and Canada. ***
Units are brand new with warranty.

We also  offer rotary paper trimmers from such names as Rotatrim and Kobra, 
as well as  the rare "Creative Memories" deckle edge cutter made  by Susis.

Good luck.

I plan  to begin making slipcases and clamshell boxes. I need advice about a
paper  cutter. It looks like a Kutrimmer 1071 (28" cutting blade) would be
very  suitable for this. I don't expect to rebind books in a serious way.  Are
there other paper cutters that I should investigate?  Would the  shorter
(cheaper) cutters be adequate?

Any other  suggestions?

Thanks.
