Hi all
Yes - I have one such - it leaves a very safe edge -it folds the metal over as it cuts, like a tinsmith's guillotine ( on a smaller scale)
Also - I wondered if the museum of Brands and Packaging does not still help with the tin labels? - does it still exist? Or is it too expensive these days?
