But it weighs 6 lbs!!!! I wouldn't want to be picking that up with my arthritic hands, very often.

This is a commercial cutter - used by clothing manufacturers to cut out patterns. Basically the same as a rotary cutter but too heavy and expensive for home use. A shop could probably justify the cost if they cut their own jelly rolls.

I had one of these several years ago I paid $125.00 for it and I loved it but at the time I was making denim purse out of really heavy denim and I could cut 8-10 layers of denim at a time. Since I retired from that, I use the Black and Decker electric cutter for cutting my fabric cost around 20 dollars and they work great. Harbor freight even has them on sale this month not the B&B brand and they are cordless. I gonna get me one of those.

Initial acquisition price is high for some of us but in the end I think it would pay for itself quickly in money saved on rotary blades. Not when compared to the tool-store blades but certainly if you buy from Jo-Ann, even at half-price. I

The price and weight would certainly deter me from buying!

Seems like way too much money for me.

if it will go through an 1" depth of fabric, what will do to your cutting mat? There is just not enough info on this product to date!

I have a friend that has a similar one that did a lot of production on puppets, jackets, hats, etc. so it was justified for them. I'm not sure that it would give the average quilter the exact cuts they are looking for. It would be interesting to play with for a while if someone wants to donate some fabric.

Sounds like an industrial tool. I wouldn't want one, for I'd ruin everything I tried to cut.
