Squeegee Talk

[ZooCity]

And what are you using to cut the blade?

I usually just use a fresh box cutter blade but it ain't always pretty.

Then I have these bastards, both of which need new blades very badly.  I was thinking of getting new blade for the corner rounder, that's sweet having consistency there, and necessary so you don't limit your image area by accident. 

But then instead of keeping the crank style cutter, maybe a tiny miter saw, like something cheapo from harbor freight, with a fine tooth blade so you could trim the squeegee right flush to the holder.  I dunno.

We have always just cut our blades with a miter saw. Good idea? Who knows? Probably not the best, but it works!

I like miter saw, gonna try it.  Cheaper than the cutters and hey, now you have a miter saw too.

Where do you all buy your smilin' jack/manny/dr j?  ryonet is the only supplier in my area with them and the 16" Jacks are $56, mannys and dr. js $61.

These craftsman cutters cut squeegee blades like butter with a super clean edge, and very inexpensive, after using them it makes no sense to me to do it any other way:
