The idea of a car cutting template is great, and there are others out there that are much better
than this one. This is made of a material that, if I were to guess, I would say has been 3-D
printed. It is not very easy on the blade when you cut. They are much easier ways to make a short
deck or spin golly deck. This is not as Percision made as it should be. A similar those slightly
different but superior device is the plexiglass, laser cutDevice called perfect score, which is
significantly cheaper. Another similar but much better device is the doctor mirabilis universal
cartenmaschine.

This is cool. I would recommend a corner rounder for corner shorts rather than the Wonder Cutter
because it's a lot easier and faster. As for other cuts, this is way cool. I had a lot of fun making
cards that I have no idea what I would do with. I did read another review about the blade being bad.
It's really not. Your blade will full with a lot of cuts, that's just what they do. Buy extra blades
and keep a sharpening stone near by and you'll be golden. If you want to make your own gaffs. I
highly recommend the Wonder Cutter.

A jig for making gaff cards, just like it says on the tin.
A few points: First, throw out
the included knife and get yourself a genuine X-Acto. A single-edge razor blade also works.
Second, remember: use a light hand.
Third, you still have to learn how to split cards
on your own. This won't do it for you.
In the future, I would hope that they would include
jigs for strippers and belly strippers (while short cards and corner shorts are easily done with
this device, strippers aren't).
I've made a Cassandra Deck and a Reverse Svengali, and
couldn't be happier with the results.

I love this thing. But do as other reviews say - get an x-acto knife. Not the dollar store one, the
one that actually says "x-acto".

If you are into gaffing this product is a real lifesaver! I have tried using Other guides but when
making Flaps and other Gimmick cards you will save a lot of headaches and ruined cards with this
tool, every line I make is perfect, The circle cutter is just a useful bonus and being able do
corners is also nice. This unit is sturdy (I would recommend getting a better cutting knife like an
olfa which Hondo uses as well. I would like to see additional attachments for making stripper decks,
etc.. but I cannot give this anything less than 5 stars because it does it’s job well and looks like
it’s gonna hold up a long time! Thanks Penguin 🐧 for the great price and fast shipping :)
