I have a couple of the small provo craft trimmers that work great for cardstock and regular paper but they aren't really tough enough for photo paper.
I'm printing my LO at home 8x8 size but using full sheet photo paper. What type of trimmers have you found work best?
In the past I have not had good luck with the big slicing blade type as it seems like the bottom edge is never straight and bows a little to one side.
I'd like something that offers replaceable blades too. I saw a big Fiskers one at Costco the other day, I might go back and check it out.
Your comments are appreciated :)
Thanks!
Molly

I don't know how much help I'll be to you as I really don't like trimmers for photos. I hardly ever use one, even for paper.
I much prefer my trusty old craft-knife and metal rule. Much more controllable and nothing moves or slips. Just be sure your blade is keen and you don't press down on your blade too hard.

I have fiscars. I haven't tried the Costco's one. I bought mine at Michaels.
