Flatbed cutter on the cheap

Recommended Posts

A while back USCutter had a sale on the desktop MH cutters, I couldn't resist getting another toy so I bought one.

 

I picked it up to mostly because I make many of my own product labels and when I need a small fix using a piece of scrap.

 

I cut a piece of Coroplast to 14 3/16 x 11 and made a table top stand for it. It attaches to my cutter with two pieces of Velcro. ( see photos )

 

Granted it's not a "true" flatbed cutter but I'm sure you could adapt the idea for your projects.

 

Oh and yes the MH can easily contour cut, just zero off your blade. In SCALP it's a good idea to hit "test connection" each time you load a project or it will do things you are not expecting. 

 

( I don't sell the bullet holes I was just testing the capabilities of the bed & complicated contour cutting )
