Cutting patches

[country gent]

This drawing/sketch shows how I cic mine. to help with my written explanation.
Pics of the board didnt show it well enough.
Here is the parts list
1- spacers to hold angle in level alignment
2- hex nuts 1/4 20
3- aluminum angle
4- threaded rod 1/4 20
5-thumb nuts 1/4 20
6- aluminum angl
7-aluminum flat stock

I only showed the side view of the parts that had alignment needs.

With the increased popularity of lasers, I wonder if people will start using them for cutting paper patches. Seems like it would be a conflict of technologies.

I suspect that a laser cutter would start the paper on fire but I’m not sure on that.

I dont know they are being used for wood working etching engraving and other things

I used a paper cutter along with jigs for cutting alignments, then went back to making my own brass cutting templates - ah, mo' bettah.

I found an old school paper cutter like the OP showed... hoping to give it a try shortly. Got some .40 cal HB PP bullets cast up for a Krieger Metford rifled bbl.
