I have been looking for a corner rounder that will cut a corner like a playing card, thinking that would be a 1/8" corner rounder. Everything I have seen in a package that says 1/8" appears to be 1/4". Doing a Google search, there are Very Expensive corner rounders for people who make playing cards. Anyone know of a cheaper-than-$10 one? TIA
One of the Chompers has an 1/8" corner rounder. The wonderful thing about the Chompers is that you can cut four sheets of cardstock at once. Use a coupon to buy them at Michael's, Joann's, etc.
It's not sub $10 but the yellow-handled Corner Chomper would give you both 1/8" and 3/8" on one tool and will go through just about anything you want to round off (I've used mine on chipboard domino to round off for pendants, for example). It's $15.95 on Amazon (here) or you may be able to find one somewhere you can use a coupon.
Rounding at 1/16" is barely there! What size item did you look at the 1/8th Chomper rounding on?
I've attached a pic of a domino pendant that has the corners rounded with a 1/8th Chomper and that looks in proportion to me (it's standard domino size at 1" x 2"). I imagine something the size of playing card would look fine with this radius rounding too but give me the measurements of what you want and I'll do a test one for you and post a pic so you can judge for yourself.
Well, that pendant is JUST BEAUTIFUL... I clicked the Amazon link that was posted above then enlarged the photo of the corner chomper and held my smallest rounded corner up to my screen, and it was the same size. Yes, I'm thinking I want Teeny Tiny!
Unorthodox way to do it: If you have any of those scallop-edge scissors from a bizillion years ago laying around, trimming a corner with one scallop is what I do...
