Comparing the Three Dahle Craft Trimmers

If you are in need of a new rotary trimmer for personal use, you might want to take a look at Dahle craft trimmers. These trimmers are high-quality products that are great for all kinds of personal use, especially craft projects such as greeting cards, scrapbooks, and so on. Dahle manufactures three different craft trimming products: the Card Maker, the Trim Ruler, and the Personal Trimmer Kit. This article will compare and contrast these trimmers so you can decide which one would be right for you.

The Card Maker and Trim Ruler are two very similar gadgets that can help make crafting more enjoyable. Both of these rotary trimmers can trim items that are up to 13 inches long and they're lightweight which makes transporting them easy. Both of these cutters have a self-Healing Cutting mat and they can trim up to three sheets of paper at a time. So while they're not good for heavy-duty cutting, they are perfect for crafts. Each trimmer comes with three blades: one is straight and the other two are decorative. The Card Maker has deckle and scoring blades, whereas the Trim Ruler has a wavy blade, plus another blade that can perforate your paper. The blades are interchangeable and changing them is safe because they're in a plastic case. Also, you can use Card Maker blades with a Trim Ruler and vice versa. This is great because it gives you a lot of cutting options so you can easily pick the right blade for your project. It's easy to measure your item, too, because the mat has a measurement grid on it. These trimmers are available for $29.95 each, so they're affordable even in this rough economic climate.

If you're a hardcore crafter and need a little bit more in a rotary trimmer, the Dahle Personal Trimmer Kit could be what you're looking for. This really is a kit in the true sense of the word, because it contains the Dahle Personal Rolling Trimmer 507, as well as several different blades. The 507 is one of Dahle's premier products and it can cut items that are up to 12.5 inches long. It is lightweight and portable, and it has a self-healing cutting mat and a paper clamp that ensures an accurate cut. The blade is enclosed so you can't hurt yourself, plus it's self-sharpening and it can cut in any direction. The 507 can cut up to 7 sheets of paper at a time and you can trim lots of different types of paper with it, including bond paper and card stock. (You can also trim photos.) The mat has a sizing guide so you can determine where to cut your document. This trimmer is definitely made for people who need a high-quality personal rotary trimmer and it comes with four different blades: straight, wavy, deckle, and perforated, so it offers more cutting options than a single Card Maker or Trim Ruler unit. Naturally, the Personal Trimmer Kit is more expensive that the Card Maker or Trim Ruler, and it retails for $109.95. Yes, that's a big difference, but consider the fact that you have more cutting options, plus the blades are self-sharpening, which can save you both time and money.

Overall, the product you choose should be the one that best fits your needs. The Card Maker and Trim Ruler are both affordable, great products, but they aren't quite as durable as the trimmer in the Personal Trimmer Kit, nor do they offer as many blade options. Therefore, the Personal Trimmer Kit may be the better investment. But no matter which product you choose, since it's made by Dahle, you can be confident you're getting a great product. Good luck and happy crafting!

Hi. I waqs just wondering if I can put Formica on an old huge wood desk?

I just bought this wooden conference desk that is in it's original condition, which is excellent with just minor fading. However, I bought it to use it as a craft table for rubber stamping and scrapbooking workshops. The room is lavender with white trim and all my other furniture in the room is a bright white. I've been told I am crazy for wanting to refinish this piece but I did not buy it for an heirloom, I bought it to serve a purpose and I am a real matchy-matchy type of person....... Can someone help me out with this? I would like to know if I can cover the desk with Formica laminate? I know that this is what they use on countertops and this tends to hold up forever. Any help with this and/or a referral in the Cleveland, Ohio area would be great!!! Thanks so much for your time. Nicole : )

Yes, you can adhere Formica (laminate) to the top of the desk. You can order a piece after looking through the samples of laminate at your local home center store. You are shopping for the flexible sheet of laminate and not the pre-formed counter top. When you order, bring along the dimensions so that you order a piece large enough to cover the top with a bit extra all around. The desk top must be smooth and flat and sanded and ready for the laminate installation.

The Formica is adhered with a contact type cement and you can easily find the installation instructions online. You will need to trim the laminate with a router with a laminate bit to clean the edges. If you pay attention to proper preparation and have the right tools on hand (you can rent them) you can complete this project yourself.

Have fun. What a great idea you have there!
