What I like is that it provides me with a guide, so my cutting line won't wander off by following grain (which happens now quite often even with a straight edge) so if I'd still have to do 3-5 cuts, it would be much more comfortable and more importantly - it would be guaranteed to be straight. Anyway, I'm not buying one without trying it first :) | |
