Position the paper or paper stack against the guide.
Confirm that the paper and guide are properly aligned.
Secure the paper and make your cut.
Repeat the process for consistent finished sizing.

This item is an alignment and sizing tool only. It does not cut the paper by itself. Always follow the safety instructions supplied by the manufacturer of your paper cutter and keep hands away from the blade.
MATERIAL AND FINISH
Material: PLA plastic
Production method: 3D printed
Finish: Lightly textured surface
Identification: Measurement embossed directly onto the guide
Made to order

Because each item is 3D printed, small layer lines or minor surface variations may be visible. These are normal characteristics of the production method and do not affect the intended use of the guide.

Colors may appear slightly different depending on lighting, screen settings, and available PLA material.

IMPORTANT MEASUREMENT INFORMATION

The guide helps position paper at a selected measurement, but final cutting results may also depend on:

The alignment and condition of your paper cutter
Blade thickness and sharpness
Paper thickness
Number of sheets being cut
How firmly the paper is positioned

Please test your guide with scrap paper before cutting an important project.
