Look for a rotary cutter that you can use the blade on either side. If you are left handed you can put the blade on the opposite side it would normally be. At the moment I can’t tell you which brands are.

I am thinking of doing something similar and want to attach cutting mats to table top. Any suggestions?

Hello Colleen,

Thank you for contacting us.
Waves generally only happen in cutting mats if they are subject to heat, either from an iron or from setting a hot cup of coffee or something on them. The good news is that a small amount of heat can actually fix the problem too. I would recommend “warming up” the mat, by placing it in direct sunlight (if possible) on a table. Once it has gotten a little warm, place heavy books flat on the mat. This should help to flatten it back out.

If you have any other concerns, please contact us at 1-855-208-7187, or chat with us on our site.

We greatly appreciate your business!

Sincerely,

Lindsay
