I'm still using my manual fletcher....had an "un-normal" mat reveal so I got out my little "story-pole" piece of matboard(used to scribe various measures onto)& measured/marked the right hand distance/side of the cutter, then moved that mat-scrap to the left & moved the bottom bar to match the right side measure(everyone has done this a million time!)....
All of which got me to thinking (again) about why, if 'they' can make the scale on the right hand side work, then why oh WHY can't "they" have put a similarly accurate scale on the left side of the bar & save us all the time/trouble to make up a story-pole(which is mostly accurate), etc & put my own marks on the aluminium base plate, so we dont need to go thru that entire procedure ever again ??? ??? ??? ??? Anyone have any ideas???
