Home Built Lace cutter

Recommended Posts

On my trip to South Africa last year I visited the SA Guild and Tommy McLintic was there to demonstrate the lace cutter he had developed himself. Being so far away from the USA with terrible import costs, these guys are forced to come up with a plan - and they do!

I will put the video that I have of this cutter somewhere on the web and place a link later on in this topic ...
