This is exciting. I am hoping the best for you (and us when it is manufactured). Keep us up-to-date. Congrats on your patent. Wow, tell us how long you have been working on this, how intricate it must be to do something like this. Brain power plus to you.

I will definately be looking for your invention when it comes to market. I have RA in my hands and hardly ever make a complete cut through just one layer of fabric. Good luck and much success with it !

Congratulations. Thank you for sharing the good news with us. The best to you. It will have to be a success.

I am so excited. Sometimes the arthritis in my hands prevents me from using my rotary cutter, or when cutting a large amount of fabric my hands ache for days. Keep us posted! This is wonderful news!!!!!

If you want an electric rotary cutter, there are some already on the market and have been for years.
I have a Birdie.
These run at very fast speeds. You would have to be very experienced to cut quilt blocks with an electric cutter.
They are great for stacking layers of fabric, about 6, and cutting around a heavy cardboard or plexiglas templates.
I have much experience with an electric cutter and would not be able to cut quilt blocks accurately.

Who carries the Birdie?

Please PM me when it comes out. I have lupus and FM, and the hardest part of this for me is the cutting and actually working on the machine. My hands get so painful that I can only do this in very short periods of time. Thank you for thinking of this idea!
