Whatever size of organiser you use with the exception of A4 size, if you are printing your own inserts you are going to need some form of paper cutter, unless you print on the exact size of paper for your organiser.
There are lots of options available, some easier and cheaper to use than others.
The most simplest solution would be a large pair of scissors, may be wall paper size scissors, long bladed and sharp enough to crisply cut paper.
Then there are a variety of paper cutters, rotary cutters available.
There are the most scary ones!
These guillotines can cut up to 12 sheets at once. I used to have access to one like this, but it didn't have a guard on it which was a bit scary!
I currently use a rotary trimmer similar to this one.
We have had it for a number of years. I'm not sure what the claimed capacity is, but it cuts 2 or 3 sheets without too many issues. The above example found on Amazon claims to be able to cut 10 sheets, which I find hard to believe!!
Then there are 'Heavy Duty Paper Cutters' that claim to be able to cut 300-400 sheets at once! The paper is clamped, and then you pull a lever to operate the cutting blade.
The thought of being able to cut to size a full year of diary inserts, ensuring that all of the pages are equal size has its attractions.
Have any of you had experience of using this type of paper cutter? Please comment below.
