I bought this for model making as I needed small pieces of paper to look like flower petals (paper). Perfect for the job, cuts card, paper, plastic with ease. Sturdy, easy to move the blade sizes around once you read the instructions, and comfortable for long sessions punching 22,587 petals. I foresee this being borrowed by my model painting group to make scale buttons, and rivets. 9but only if they can prize it out of my cold dead hands).
