Accu-Cut Dies

Keeping Up With Kids

A few years ago, based on many requests from libraries, we purchased an Accu-Cut machine*. For a list (with pictures!) of the dies we have, please take a look at our new, improved web page.

Because the machine is insanely heavy, we can’t transport it via courier, which has made it tricky for people to use. Remember, you can use the machine when you are here, or you can arrange to borrow it from the IFLS office if you provide transportation (and strong backs to lift it in and out of your car). If you have a machine and would like to borrow our dies, you can do that, too.
Easist of all, we have a few volunteers here who can cut shapes if we have enough lead time. Contact Leah (langby at ifls.lib.wi.us) if you would like to exercise either of these options! If we see enough use, we’ll continue to purchase dies, but if not, we will put our limited resources elsewhere.

* A die-cutting machine that allows you to easily cut out shapes for decorations, craft projects, and much more.
