Whats that tool?

[~natasha~]

I may be having a moment but I am sure I have seen (through here) a tool that I would now be interested in purchasing... but I cant find the thread/info Its a system simaler to the Coluzzle and EK CutterBee. All I remember is there was a stencil that you placed on your card stock and then you slotted in a blade that was held in a circlular tube (about 1" circumference and 1" high) and this cut the shape. The tube had 'wheels' on it and was more stable than the knife with the Coluzzle. You could move this to the inside or outside of you shape depening on the size you needed.

Now is this avalible or have I just got the above systems confussed?

Are you thinking of the Fiskars cutting tool?

Thanks andie. No I think I have found it the x-cut shape cutter system. I finally found it after searching you tube Thanks anyway. Off to see if any sponsor stocks it.

The craft co, a sponsor has it here

I have it and it's great This is the only shape cutter i can use properly, it cuts so well

Thanks niki, two other sponsor have it too Is it as easy to use as it looks? Do you need a glass cutting mat for it or is a normal self healing mat sufficient? Are the cirlces and squares quite small as I am using them really for card making?

Natasha, here are the answers to your questions.

1. It is so easy to use I love it and have the whole kit
2. You can use a normal self healing cutting mat, but i use a glass mat (well, glass worktop saver turned upside down) It just means that the blade glides better
3. The inside of the smallest circle and square is 2".

You won't be sorry you bought it, i am sure hope these answers help you decide whether to buy it or not.

Thanks so much niki. I am definatly buying it. Trying to find a sponsor who does the gift set but no luck yet. If you buy it all seperatly its £10 more expensive

Thanks for all your help
