Sorry for such a beginner question, but I haven't seen any comparison info on these two mat cutting tools for home crafts people. Only differentiating characteristic I can see are ---
Altos 4501 or 4505: +has pin registered width adjustment; +ergonomic handle on cutting blade, -blade is held against guide by pressure, -uses special cutters
Logan 301 or 401: +has slot and rail guide for cutter carriage, +uses standard single edge razor blades, +right angle guide for holding material square, -width of frame adjustment depends on two slots in particle board, indicator is read off analogue scale (limits repeatablity).
Maybe I'm asking too much from a low cost solution, but would appreciate any opinions.
Thanks, Mike
