8thsinner Report post Posted February 21, 2010 After reading about people who take a 1/2 - 1 inch cut on circle cutting I never gave it much thought until I finally got around to doing samples of all the lace maker widths braided out to see how wide the braids actually are I had an idea. Using a lace maker to get wider cuts... Basically fitting the blade on the outside works. File down the outside ridges about 1/16th or so, making sure you get the ridge to fit the blade into perfectly at the top and bottom. I used the wood file on my leatherman TTi which tore through it very quickly. It took a few attempts at locking the blade in with the split rings as it tends to bend outwards and I did break a blade trying to line up the edges. So now I can cut roughly half inch strips with my lacemaker. Which may come in handy especially for Inner core work on whip making. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
