How flexible is it? would it fit well to the shape of a skateboard? and also, how easy is it to cut? do i need to laser cut it or could i use a razor?

Thank you for your question. This material is too thick and not flexible for your project. You would be better with 4mil material which is thin and will cut with razor, but you may find since you have curves to cut looking at the gyro cutters they cut much easier than razor and produce cleaner curves. Hope this helps. Stencilease Customer Service.

It is a flexible blade. It is meant to be flexible, that is part of the reason it works so well.

Another thing to remember is that it "snaps" the material, when the blade presses down. There is no sawing motion as such, just simple pressure force on the blade. Be sure to draw your cut lines clearly so you can see them, and perhaps even pre-cut using a straight edge and carpet knife or other tool proper to the material. It works wonders, and if someone is putting in flooring it is a dream to use. It is easiest to use by "standing" on the material, but it will also work cutting board style as well on a table.

I cut mine with scissors. It is solid plastic but still a little flexible and not really thick. A utility knife should work, too.

You have to make a slit with a razor blade.I got mine in September of 2014 and I am happy with it!!!

It's pretty easy. It does curl pretty badly so I would either have someone help you hold it down or use a couple heavy objects so you can get a straight cut. It does have a grid printed on the back for easy measurement.

I'm answering a couple of questions , Cutting requires a sharp and safe to use razer cutter like a box knife or similar. How the ends look depends on the person cutting it and the type of cuts you make. Some people cut into a point which is the easiest , cutting into other dhapes is difficult, but not impossible. The width caught me by suprise , I expected it to be wider , but it still worked out for me.

Yeah. Ask a professional barber to manually adjust the blade and do the design for the first design time, thats the easiest way. Be careful though the blade is sharper after if not you may cut yourself.And as you may imagine it is easier to carefully design a different persons facial hair than do yourself.

YES you'll be able to cut it fairly easy providing you have good sharp siss i rs, the top and bottom sections seem to seperate on the edges, so you could peel them apart the few inches you need to cut and this would make it so you could cut a layer at a time.GOOD LUCK

Hi Cindy, I have this product and installed it with my seventeen yr old, to answer your question...this product is quite flexible but to do a 90 degree angle I would have say "NO" but it does cut quite nicely if that is helpful? Good luck if you make the purchase, we were very happy with the results and it does look really nice!LJL

I did it easily with just regular scissors although the result was a little jaggy. Make sure you cut the BACK so that it won't show and no one gets hurt...

I had no problem cutting it. I don't recall whether I used scissors or a razor knife but I believe either would work.

I think it should cut fine. If you do tons of laminated badges it may dull the blade over time, but think CARL can easily handle this job.

Since there is no finished side to this item, I see no reason why you couldn't cut it. Can't you find a smaller size though? If you do cut it, mark it with a chalk line and then cut with a razor knife.

You would need a thin sharp blade---and don't forget technique! If you have a favorite sushi place watch theblade used and ask if you will. They are friendly to customer question.

It's rather thick. It can be cut, but I think you'd need something other than scissors to do it. Good luck!
