kudos to olfa (and other manufacturers too) for creating this little baby...an ergonomic rotary cutter. when i started quilting there was no rotary cutter. i quickly obtained one and have been a faithful user ever since. now that i am of a "certain age" and looking to preserve joint function, i snapped this up on sale to insure future rotary cutting. and even better, it's easily adaptable for us sinister people...you know, lefties! ***** after a brief chill we are back in the 40s today and tomorrow...wahoo, my kind of winter!
I must be of that "certain age", too! : )
ReplyDeleteI too am of that "certain age"! Does the handle have to be squeezed to open the blade and do you have to keep the pressure on it in order for the blade to stay open. If yes, then I would probalbly have difficulty keeping the blade open.
ReplyDeletesusan, the handle must be squeezed to engage the blade but it has a very light touch and there is very little strength required to keep it engaged while using the cutter.
