What did you use to cut the netting into sheets? I have the round trays and since it is black, I cannot mark it with a Sharpie and cut with scissors.

I also used round trays. I bought a sheet of green poster paper, used a magic marker on the paper to trace out the size and shape I needed, and used scissors to cut out a template. I then used some duct tape to tape the template to an old piece of plywood. I could then lay the netting on the template and cut it with an utility knife, since I could easily see where to cut by the color of the template.

The black net borders will need to be 'un-sewn' from the net. Remove the top string. Cut the blue netting to the appropriate length. Re-sew the black border to the blue net. Re-Insert the string. Cut the string to the appropriate length.

I would use scissors. They were perfect for our yard sale. Each person involved had their own color. They were alittle smaller than I thought they would be. But we all loved them.

I watched a youtube video about it and found it very helpful. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zt20TOkBCXY I used a safety pin and placed the flat side of the paper flush with the netting so the chrysalis hung down facing the inside of the enclosure.

I use a staple gun and staple the netting to two 1" x 2" posts. I do square foot gardening. The posts are screwed into the outside of the 8' x 4' box.

I used a similar cutter on cardboard and foam core for art class. Draw guides lines AND use a ruler to guide the blade, make sure you have something flat and solid under your work surface [I used another sheet of cardboard] press firmly and roll rather slowly. It was the BEST way to cut all the design panels I needed [especially compared to scissors and evil evil box cutters!] However, it will dull the blade quickly.

Use a sharp knife instead of scissors. Lay the cloth on a cutting board and slice with a sharp chef knife.

Yes, I had to cut my pcs down and I used a straight to create a straight line with a black marker and used razor blade knife and scissors to complete the cut.

I have used a cricket cutter and the eclips, I like the eclips better. I have a friend who uses a cameo I occasionally cut items for her.

The netting is not is not rolled up in any sort of organized way. It is stuffed into the sack so that if you were to find the end at the top it will come out easily and without getting tangled. It is stuffed much like a rope in a rescue bag is (if your familiar with that). I believe that if you were to find the end you could pull out what you want and trim off as much as you needed, but if it all came out it would not be that big of an issue. Hope this helps.

I always keep that mat! But, maybe you could try a piece of parchment paper or get a cheapy plastic placemat from the dollar store to protect the sticky layer of the cutting may.

We have had several people use our blank material with cutting machines, such as a Cameo. However, you will want to use our thinnest material, the 4 mil thickness. We sell this material by the foot or in 8.5 by 10.5 and 12.5 by 17 inch sheets. We now have 25 sheet packs available with Amazon Prime shipping options. You can find these 25 sheet packs by searching the following Item# AMY040812U25 and Item# AMY041218U25. Please contact us if you have any further questions. Thank you, The StencilEase Team

I had the same question. I just got the white sheets and they do not have a black border.

Like a champ. We've had ours for a couple years. And love it as much as we did the day we got it. You just pull the paper up as you would like Tin foil or Saran Wrap. Course what ever you're cutting would need to be on a roll inside the.........system itself. I hope this helps.

I used a very sharp pocket knife , I also used a box cutter with a plain razor blade and they both worked well !! Hope this helps

Matt, some people use scissors. I prefer using a straight edge and a razor knife. Be sure to place a cutting board under the vacuum roll where it is to be cut.Hope this helped. Bill

On my old one ...there is a guide wire in the middle of the plastic piece that moves up and down to hold the paper. The cutter is also on that piece. The cutter shreds the wire. I hate it!
