I know someone in Australia (Jesse (xx?)) did some cutting with
9.5", to get 8x10 sheets (not sure how he dealt with the actual 9.5"
vs 10").

Btw, 9.5" is exactly 241,3mm (if 9.5" is accurate that is)....and it
is perforated, so you must allow some mm's waste....
I guess 3 strips is more practical; and remember that for several 
cameras you want the more accurate 120/220 width of 61mm.
