    Rotary blade tip.

    Just found this tip whilst meandering around the quilting web. Must get something done now!

    Interesting. And it makes sense.

    This saves me a trip to Harbor Freight for now.

    Thanks.
    Every day, I find it harder to live up to my blue china.

    where in a hardware store do you find rotary blades? Do the blades fit any rotary cutters or do you have to have a certain kind?

    Cutting foil also sharpens your scissors. Professional sharpening is better but this will help.

    This also applies to dull scissors. Thanks for the tip.
