Love the 5x7 tip 😊
So glad it was helpful!
Thank You for the tips! I bought this trimmer & was going to return it. My cuts were coming out crooked. Love the 5x7 pin wheel. 💖
Glad I could help! I hope all your cuts will be straight!
Love the tips; makes so much sense!! thanks for the ideas.
Wow, thanks for this! My cuts are always crooked. I will try these techniques. 😘
WOW!!! I will never see a trimmer the same way😃. Thank you so much for all your tips❤️❤️❤️❤️. THIS IS THE MOST INFORMATIVE VIDEO EVER!!!!
You are so welcome!
This was incredibly helpful! Thanks for all of the great hints!
Thank you for sharing your videos
You're so welcome! Thanks so much for watching and commenting! 😊
Just got this paper trimmer and this video was so helpful. Thanks for all of the tips and tricks!
Kathryn I had a fun time watching your video today. I have to drop by more often - you make me laugh which is a good thing!
Glad I found your channel before unboxing my first portable sized, Fiskars SureCut Paper Trimmer! Thanks for the great tips!
Oh my ~ Thanks so much for the tips with this trimmer! I bought a slightly different size with the extension arm two days ago and became frustrated that it wouldn't cut square. Will give it another go following your advise. :)
I hope these tips help you out, Julie! It's not a bad trimmer with a few adjustments! 💖
Thanks so much for the great tips, Kathryn!
Thanks, Vickie! 😊
This is great info! Just bought this and thankful for all these experienced tips.
VERY informative video! Thank you!
Thanks for the fun project. I like the Scoring-Pal Scoreboard. It has an optional self healing mat that fits on it that gives it more versatility. It has held up better for me than the Martha scoreboard.
Extremely helpful video!!!
Very useful info!
Thank you so much! My husband refuses to see a youtube video for something "so basic" and all my cards are crooked and now I get t show him how to do it LOL
The “hand hold think” you speak of was never intended to hold the paper down with; it is simply the mechanism to lift the rail up once your cut is completed.
Fun stuff - thank u
Well, thanks so so much. I have had the same Fiskars paper trimmer for a few years and was getting very frustrated with it not cutting straight. I realise now what I've been doing wrong :( Will head off now and try it your way. :)
Good luck, Linda! I hope these tips help you get better results from your trimmer. ❤️
I didn't realize that using the handguard to secure the rail was killing my cuts. I kind of figured I'd never get razor-accurate cuts but getting cuts that were straight up cooked was super frustrating. Going to have to try another cut run now with this in mind!
I hope your results improve now that you know this trimmer's quirks!
Can i cut the thin ava foam with that ?
there is a lock underneath the ruler that slides up and down
I don't think that people really know what it is.
hello! i bought this trimmer to make jelly vinyl key fobs, do you think it will work? thank you for all the tips, learned a lot today!!
I haven't cut vinyl on this trimmer, so I don't know for sure how it will do. My guess is that a rotary style trimmer will probably do a better job on vinyl than this one, but it's possible this one will still do a fine job.
Buenos días
Esa guillotina la consigo en Bucaramanga Colombia y la referencia gracias
Omg I was getting frustrated earlier because my paper was crooked! I've never used one before today and couldn't figure out what I was doing wrong! And why have that thing there to look like it'll hold it down!
This trimmer's quirks are so frustrating because it's actually a really decent option for the price - as long as you know how to work around some of its issues. Hopefully these tips will help you get some good cuts from your trimmer!
Hello Kathryn...been doing some research on my fiskars trimmer. I have no idea which one I have. It has the blue flowers on it. When the swing arm it out it is all white...no orange on it. The one I have seems to work better with the blade G. My issue is the handle that has the blade on it lifts up from the right to left. I have not seen any of the cutters work this way in my research. Tried to find out if I have a left handed paper trimmer?....can you give me any suggestions. You really know your trimmers inside and out!
Hi, Catherine!
My guess from your description would be that you have the Fiskars Portable Scrapbooking Paper Trimmer (12"): www.fiskars.com/en-us/crafting-and-sewing/products/paper-trimmers/portable-scrapbooking-paper-trimmer-12-196920-1001
Looking at that trimmer online, it does seem as though the blade track lifts in the opposite direction from this one. In that case, you may find it easier to use "upside down" (blade track on the left vs. the right) and pull the blade towards you.
Awesome. What size paper did you start with?
To make the 5x7 Pinwheel, you start with a 12x12 piece of paper. 💖
I use the rail lock when I cut, is that okay?
I think it's fine to lock the rail to hold it in place while you cut - the distortions seem to come from using the handle to hold it down.
Will this work on foam board?
How did you make that cute card? Great info
Thank you, Annemarie! That card is one of the mini pages from my Split Decision album, but it would definitely work as a card on its own as well: www.kathrynscraps.com/product-page/split-decision-album-base-ics-guide
Which cutter is best for the chipboard and to use for any cutting?
The trimmer I recommend for papercrafting is the Rotatrim M12 (or M15 if you print/cut larger than 12"x12"). I have had my M15 since the fall of 2008. It still works perfectly and it's still on its first blade. I've cut thousands of sheets of chipboard on it. It works great! The only thing it doesn't do is cut the 5x7 pinwheel I showed in this video.
@@kathrynscraps can you suggest a trimmer that’s as good but not as expensive? I guess you have to pay for quality😂
@@maybso3083 Unfortunately, no. 😭 I've tried a bunch of trimmers over the years to try and find a less expensive replacement and there's nothing that has come close. If you can't get a Rotatrim right now, I recommend you use this Fiskars trimmer.
WHY does FISKARS have those funky KNOBS on the 4 corners of their TRIMMERS?!? Why can't they just have regular corners? OR, R O U N D E D ones like their trimmer designed to go into a 3-ring binder??? (I'm prone enough to snagging things off my counter and onto the floor!!)
I bought the Fiskars Procision trimmer and disliked it too. It is just taking up space because it was too expensive (even half price) to throw away.
I found the gap between 6" and 5.5" to be REALLY unfortunate. It really decreased its usefulness for me. On top of that, the issue with cutting chipboard just killed it for me.
@@kathrynscraps I purchased it to cut chipboard and it was worthles..
Thanks for the video. You explained why some of my cuts were not consistent.
7:30 You're NEVER gonna get a totally razor straight cut. So we could put a man on the moon and return him safely to Earth over 50 years ago with what amounted to slide rule technology but today for $36 we can't make a paper cutter that makes a perfectly straight cut every time?
