Die cutting machines
 
We have two shape cutting machines and a variety of Ellison and Accucut dies available for groups to use during our scrapstore opening times.
 
Dies or shape cutters can be used on a variety of materials including:
  • Paper
  • Card
  • Leather
  • Some plastics
  • Fabrics
 
Dies include a range of:
  • Healthy eating shapes
  • Boxes
  • Bags
  • Cards
  • Masks
  • Puzzles
  • Play shapes
 Our newest shapes include a dragon, tested by 100s of children at our Chinese New Year event in January. The owls and bats tested by children at an alternative haloween event. 

We purchase replacement parts and new dies using funds generated through sale of pre-cut shapes available in our shop.
