Re: [photo-3d] Board for stereo cards

[Linda Nygren <lnygren@xxxxxxx>]

This is exactly the cutter that many of us use for rounding card
corners. It can also be used for thinner stock such as the actual
photos. Cheapie punch style corner rounders will also work on photos,
but aren't adequate for card stock. Different radius cutters are
available for the Lassco cutter also, but the 1/4" or 3/8" are probably
most suitable for card corners. If anyone buys a used Lassco cutter, you
should verify the cutting radius. Replacements are available new but are
about $75 and I think a new cutter with one cutting unit of your choice
is about $150 or more. Hence the popularity of the used market. -Linda
