Ellison® Letter Machine
The Ellison Letter Machine is a hand operated die cutting machine that makes perfectly cut letters, numbers and shapes with one push of the handle. The Ellison Machine cuts through several layers of paper at a time producing precise images. Materials suitable for cutting are paper, fabric, wallpaper, recycled materials, sponge, cardboard, magnet and more. This time saving device creates images that will enhance learning, hands on activities, games, story time, puppets, posters, and bulletin boards with sharp, clear, reusable images.
