: Larry where do you get one of these fabric cutters? On my canoe i used shears
: and while they made nice work of the bias strips i still got a few strays.
: Thanks for the info. Elliott

Elliott, The one I have is a Fiskars, bought it at Walmart. Mine is part #9521. It has a 45mm wheel.As Pete suggested, get a spare wheel. I have not worn one out yet though. I suggest you also get the cutting mat (at least 16"). It saves the wheel, I just slide it along under the cloth for long cuts. The FG cloth in the pic is a piece I just cut. It leaves a very clean edge and stays that way if cut on a bias.
