All,

The guillotine trimmer we use to trim are in-house made folders is on its last legs and I need to replace it.  Currently we order large rolls of card stock which we then roll out to a desired length, cut, fold, and trim.   A hassle but it gets the job done.  Before I replace my trimmer I thought I’d ask and see what other map collections/libraries use.  Rotary trimmer vs. guillotine vs buying re-cut folders?    

Thanks,

Dennis
