- How does a passepartout cutter works - I use Logan.
I does not have to be hard to cut your one passepartout and it is a hole lot cheaper than find and buy one for the size of your painting or photo.
Here I am framing a small watercolor painting of a bullfinch. The cutter cuts in 45 degrees by it self with just a little help from me.
you're such a great storyteller
Love this video, no long explanations, everything clearly shown and understandable. 👌 Thank you. :)
Thank you so much Tijana! You madd my day :)
Brilliant! This is really very insightful, thank you very much!
@@michaelechteld Thank you for watching! Good luck!
Nice and informative video!
Thank you, Jørgen! How nice of you! :)
Wow. In over 40 years, I've never heard or read of a matboard being called a "passepartout". Interesting.
Hi, I think it isbecause that is also the name we use in Sweden/swedish. I did'nt even think about it to translate it to matboard until you said so!! :) Next time I will.
And there is mire videos coming up, strarting up jyst now a framery for paintingt and photo, mouldings and matboards ;)/Tess
Hola, gracias por enseñarnos, qué maravillosa maquinita y técnica para cortar.
all I needed!!! many thanks!
Thank you so much, Pavel! Good luck with your framing!
Nice Demo. Could you also cut passepartout with a cutter or exacto-knife ?
Thanks! Clear instruction.
Thankyou for the demo. I just bought a maped cutter similar to the one you are using, except the one I have isn't as solid. I tried cutting a passepartout from 3-4mm thickness paper and I found it very difficult. I had to apply a lot of pressure and in the end the corners were a bit of a mess. Do you have any suggestions? I think the 3-4mm paper/mountboard is too thick for the simple cutter that I have. Also, it was my first try so maybe I just need some practice!
Hello Martyn! How nice that you got started! You need to know if the blade cuts 4 mm. I apply a lot of pressure when cutting. Try and practice on scrap pieces. I often cut a millimeter longer than the mark so that they don't stay together. Good luck! /Tess
where can I procure/ buy such a cutter? I am from India
Genial 🎉
Gracias por tu vídeo. Sirve para formatos grandes? Que tipo de cartón usas?
Hola María, gracias por tu pregunta.
Hay un par de diferentes tamaños.
Yo uso las placas de montaje Daler Mountboard. Suelen tener el formato A1, 841 x 594 cm. 10 piezas por paquete. También pueden tener diferente color del núcleo. Consulte en su tienda de arte más cercana, si no los tienen, probablemente puedan encargarlo por usted. También pueden mostrarle muestras de diferentes colores.(Google translate)
It is acidfree. Natural pH.
I use Daler Mountboards. They are also in the format 112 cm x 815 cm. 10 pc per package. They can also have different color of the core. Please check at your nearest artstore, if they do not have them they can probably order it for you. They can also show you samples of different colors.

Hi, could you please share which cutter exactly you are using?
Thank you a lot in advance.
Hi Valeriya!
I have a cutter from Logan Graphic Production Inc.
The cutter is called Beavel Mat Cutter model 302-1 and the blades for it is #270. I hope you finds it! Take a look at their site. /Kindly regards, Tess

Thank you Mihai,
No plans for that at the moment. / Tess
What material used? Thanks
Hi Alisha, thanks for watching! See my answers under Valerya's question and you will have it all.
I have a ready passepartout but I want to make the inner dimensions bigger, Is that possible?
Hi, If you have bought PP and the inner dementions ar to narrow you can if you have a cutter make it any size you would like. But the cutter always cut in 45 degrees if that is what you mean. The one I use has this rail for the cutter so it always will go strait. I do not recommend the cutters you use in freehand, it takes a hole lot of practice. Good luck!
