Our new manual stack cutter arrives

Happy day, we just got a vintage paper stack cutter delivered.

A beast, weighing hundreds of pounds.  Made by Challenge, a 19″ cutter.  Not sure of it’s age, it is kinda timeless in technology.  The long horizontal arm is to raise and lower the cutting blade, the round wheel on top raises or lowers the stack holder.  Kind of like a first date- exciting, full of possibilities, and could maybe hurt you.  We’re going to use it for small test runs, trimming, and odd projects.
