The 301-1 Compact Classic is ideal for low volume at home framers. Uses Logan 270 blades. Great for the at home framer, or for artists who want to frame their own work.

Review: La cizalla está bien y viene con todos los complementos que constan en la caja EXCEPTO LAS CUCHILLAS. Si se quiere usar hay que comprarlas aparte. Deberían especificarlo y eliminar esa información engañosa.
Review: Ha soddisfatto abbastanza le mie aspettative. La taglierina fa il suo lavoro. La guida è utile per tenere fermo il cartoncino e agganciare la taglierina a smusso, che così procede sicura nella sua guida, senza spostarsi. Il taglio viene preciso e pulito. Il prezzo per il tipo di prodotto è abbastanza alto. Ho preso la n°301, che è molto basica, al costo di 209 euro. Avrei preferito la 350, che in più ha il righello laterale, ma i 100 euro in più mi hanno dissuaso.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: Can you fit a 32" wide mat through this cutter - is the open area at least 32" wide? I need to cut a 32" wide mat in two pieces, will this do it?**
A: 32.5 inch opening on ours.  I just measured it.  Also put a pice of cardbord in there that was 32" with a little room to spare....so yes, you should be fine.

**Q: Does this model have ADJUSTABLE STOPS  that do not allow the blade to move beyond a preset point or does the user have only his eye to "stop" overcuts?**
A: There are no stops. There is a mark on the sliding knife that shows you when to stop as it comes to the measurement line on the mat. You have to be careful but it is not hard to make good cuts.

**Q: Is the limitation of cutting only 4 ply mat board a function of the depth of the blade on the supplied bevel cutter?**
A: I don't think so because you can cut foam mounting board (about 1/4 inch thick}.  You can probably cut 4 ply, but it may take more than one pass.  I think that it is mostly a matter of leverage.

**Q: Can the cutter be configured to pull instead of push?**
A: Well once you place the cutter on the track;the engage the blade by pushing the button down on the blade you can push or pull.It's a simple straight line if on the track correctly; at the start of your cut push the blade down securely so that you feel you have penetrated the mat cleanly. Then start at the bottom or at the top of your line. In my experience it creates more resistance with the pull than with the push. Keeping a sharp blade is critical. The thickness and quality of the mat have a great deal to do with the resistance you will encounter. I am very pleased with the unit and found the CD very useful with practice and patience you will get great results.
