Will it cut 12 X 12 paper? Are the measurement markings in 1/8 inch increments? It would almost exclusively be used for cards/invitations.

Yes, you can cut 12x12 card stock or invitations. I use it a lot for cutting card stock. The orange strips you see are the rulers and have measurements to the 1/8" marked. There are some markings in the other direction, but not like the orange strips. When I have a measurement on the long side that isn't marked, I just put a piece of masking tape or post-it to mark it. This cutter works great. I had one like it for over 20 years before I had to replace it. Consumables: 45mm rotary blade which is easy to replace and the cutting strip which lasts a long, long time and can be turned over, too.

It will cut 12x12 paper - the cutting area measures about 12 1/4" - so you have a little wiggle room. It doesn't go down to 1/8 in increments - 1/4 in only. But it does have metric measurements listed.

It will cut up to 6 1/8" in width. 1" X 6" is not the actual retail dimension of the wood (it is less) unless you cut wood to that size.

The inside pocket definitely fits 12 x 12 paper with the three holes being extra on the side. Perfect for scrapbooks. The only problem is the three hole punch only lines up wih certain scrapbooks so I had robust my single hole punch to make extra holes to fit the books I already had.

The measuring scale increments are 1/4". The side measurements are 1.5" to 12" for the short side and 0 to 13 for the long side, although a 15" long piece will fit. For those familiar with quality standards, it is labeled "Quality Assured ISO 9001", which means it has passed more stringent testing than a device that has not. I have used this trimmer to make cards this Christmas and am very pleased with it.

no having having a 12 inch planner, I'm not sure but I would think you would need a jig to sharpen it evenly.

Width is 8.5 inches. Length it can do the standard 11 inches, haven't used any paper longer than 11 inches yet.

Hi, Yes the flat bed measures 12 tall and the cutting edge will accommodate a 12 inch paper. I would think that to cut off 1/8 - 1/4 it would be wise to pre-mark the two edges(top and bottom) to get an accurate cut

I don't know. I use it mainly for cutting dense cardboard similar to a strong cereal box and around 8-10 sheets of regular 22# paper. I get square cuts by using the clamp that is operated by the crank handle that clamps the paper parallel to the cutter knife. I'm not using it in a professional manner.........just home stuff. If the guides are adjusted correctly, the measurements are close enough, easily within 1/16". This is not a machine tool for cutting to tolerances on the order of 1/1000". Be aware that this cutter is very heavy and needs a sturdy table or bench.

Yes we did cut 8.5 x 14 inch paper. Didn't have a problem although we just did it as a test in getting use to machine. A someone stated earlier, we also cut short edge.

Yes. I cut it with my Stampin' Up! Sizzix machine and got nice cuts - but only with traditional dies. It won't work with thin items such as framelits and thinlits.

Mine cuts 12" x 15" I guess you will need the next size up to accomplish the legal size cut. I hope this helps out.

It most definitely won't cut a 2mm. soft wood. It's a good & precise tool, but only for light duty use. - It will handle business card thickness cardstock, but nothing more. - I have since obtained a Zutter Round-it-All Heavy Duty Corner Rounder to cut the 1/32" card I use. The cut isn't as clean as I would like, but it beats doing it by hand with scissors. Martha Stewart makes an inexpensive heavy-duty corner rounder that I would like to try, but they don't say what the radius of the cut is. (I require a 1/8" radius, equivalent to a 1/4" diameter.) If you search corner rounder on eBay, you will see many varieties from light duty to heavy duty table mounted ones. It most definitely won't cut a 2mm. soft wood.

hi I have more information for you. another site said the square measures 2 7/16 inchs also. the uchida punches are great when you figure out the size of them. I usually measure the piece that punches out and mark it on the punch with a permanent marker. they are nice for punching out fairly thick cardstock. good luck

I'm not sure, but I use index cards to make my own events. They are the correct width and I usually cut about an inch of length off so that they are not too tall.

Yes, it cuts 12 inch sized paper very well. I LOVE my swingline. It's VERY sharp, so it's really great that it has a safety latch that isn't too easy for little hands to unlatch also!

Yes. This is fairly easy to cut with the backing paper on. It's about as thick as cardstock (maybe a little thinner). Similar to a heavier contact paper. It does not have a grid on the backing paper so you would want to carefully use a straight edge and a pencil to lightly draw the cut line.

Some will argue that it is not "precise enough" for the task at hand. I use it primarily for cutting stacks of bulletins, announcements, and some posters. So far, when cutting smaller stacks of heavyweight paper, it's been precise to about 1/32 of an inch. If you cram the paper in beyond what is suggested, you will likely encounter a problem. The green plastic holder you see just beside the blade is very snug on the paper or card stock when the lock is in the proper place. If you forget to lock it, well, it will move!! That is not the fault of the cutter. Several staff members have used and like the precision of the cutter. No complaints from us! It is an extreme improvement over what we have had in the past.
