Is the clamp removable? And does it cut mat boards?

Clamp is not removable, but I think there are others without the clamp. The clamp helps you get a straight cut when cutting something think or several sheets of paper. I imagine it would cut mat boards just fine. I cut thick chipboard and have no problems.

I do not know about the clamp, have not tried to remove it! I cut .0625 chipboard with no problem, hope this helps!

The clamp has a screw and nut on each end, so should be removable, but haven't tried. It can easily cut about 10 sheets of 20lb paper at the most. More than that, it starts to not have a clean edge. So not sure if it would easily cut mat board.

There are screws by which the clamp can be removed. Can't answer about mat boards, because I haven't tried that project, but I do cut through card stock often and can cut up to 5 or 6 (depending on weight) rather smoothly. YMMV.

No. It says on the package or instructions to NOT use it for removal of the clamps

Yes but the clamps easily looses their grooves or ridges, until now I still can't find a replacement clamp. It is somewhat heavy, so I bought a lighter one instead.

I am not exactly sure what you mean by double clamp...I have this tablet and I love it! The table is very sturdy, although I do mobile grooming so I don't do alot of very large dogs. If the clamp attaching to the table is what you mean then no it does not.

Yes, a mat cutter is included. Oh, and a word of warning...it is VERY sharp as it uses the same razor blades used in the beveled cutter. For what it's worth, this is the second time I purchased this mat cutting kit as I lost the first in a move. I guess it says alot that I liked it so much I bought it a second time! Very easy to use! I recommend it highly! Great value!

Clamp. But the thing is chiply made: shakes terribly and broke at the nut after 1 month broke because of vibration (read: because chip plastic and bed construction). I woulnd buy it.

Those objects aren't clamps. They actually serve as supports for long pieces of material and as backstops for repetitive length cuts.

Short answer: "yes". Long answer: It's adjustable. I sometimes use to to clamp wood when gluing; I also use it as a guide when routing and clamping to the piece. I've also used it to clamp two pieces of wood together, routed a dado for shelf support and since the two pieces are aligned, the dado is aligned. This is a really nice tool to have.

There is a clamp. You can't actually see it in the picture because it fits to the bottom of the grey base and secures it to the edge of a table or a counter. Overall, the clamping mechanism is all metal and very solid. Hope this helps. Cheers.

No, I cut a hole in the sheet model in back of the desk. This allowed the clamp to work.

No,Ive had to replace my mat because of all the cuts i made on it. I would not recommend cutting on it at all.

Yes - it can be removed. It is just held in place by two holes in the board whereupon the small trim piece has two protruding sections that go in the holes. It can actually be removed easily if turned upside down (happened a few times). I actually wish it wasn't removable but I guess this would be useful for others.

The bar that the blade travels on floats above the material that is to be cut. The clearance allows for material up to 1/16" to slide under it. It would be possible to slide mat board no thicker than 1/16" under the guide However the blade cuts at a right angle to the surface not like cut mat for photo mounting. I am doubtful that the blade would cut mat board very well either. I have used other devices for cutting the bevel edge required for photo mounting but was never satisfied with the results.

It doesn't come with a clamp, but you can buy it separately, which is what we did. It holds securely to the side of my kitchen island without slipping, even with regular use.

Yes, no tools required. Just have to go through the procedure to set or remove the clamps properly.

Hi, the paper clamp is solid but I really don't use it. Yes, it will cut through 5 ml laminate. I use cardstock and laminated material all the time. This is my second Rotatrim. I have the very large one and I bought this one for convenience. It self sharpens and the large one is many years old and still cuts like the day I got it.

It comes with a clamp. I have it clamped onto a table that is one inch thick and I have never had to adjust it.
