If I got a spiffy, awesome mat cutter, would anyone be interested in me cutting mats for them?
I'd take a hint for Henry Ford and offer any color, thickness and texture mat as long as it's what I have right then.
I guess I could assemble the whole deal for you, mat, matboard, photo.

Hi Mark,

I'd be interested - especially for matt sizes I can't find readily available elsewhere. Let me know your pricing - and I'll keep trying to get some sales

I would too, Mark- probably for some big mats if you got the big production mat cutter that you were asking about, or something similar..

What mat cutter did you get Mark? I have a Fletcher 2000 that I LOVE!!! Makes my old Logan look like cruel and inhumane punishment!!!

An Esterly. $3200 not including shipping. It's pretty slick.

David Forster bought a Speed-Mat and he is quite happy with it. I saw one in action and had I not already bought my Fletcher I just might have gone with the Speed-Mat. One thing to know about the Speed-Mat is one will need a large wall to mount it on.

Enjoy it Mark!! It's a sweeeeeeeeeeeeeet piece of equipment!!

I just looked at the labeling on my Fletcher and noticed it is actually a 2100... And I'm totally happy with it!!! I bought it barely used for 1/2 of retail price!!

I'm trying to figure a way to put it on two 2x6s leaning up against a wall here in my photo office. I don't have a heck of a lot of room so it might go in the garage. I don't know if I'm actually going to get it yet.
