Would you pay $50 extra because the sorting box says Realist?  If you do,
I have 2 for sale :-)

While it is not very easy to duplicate the Realist cutter, it is rather easy
to find a good substitute for the sorting box.  My mounting style has no
need for a sorting box.

I am not sure that the mounting jig is part with this (or any) mounting
set.  I thought is was sold separately.  I have one for sale and I can let 
it go at ebay prices if any one is interested :-)
