Description

Create detailed DIY and workshop-themed projects with this set of six hand tool metal cutting dies. The collection includes a claw hammer, pliers, screwdriver, utility knife, adjustable spanner and smaller spanner, giving you a useful selection of familiar workshop tools.

Each tool cuts as an individual shape once the connected set has been separated. Use contrasting cardstock colours to create coloured handles and metallic-looking tool sections, or keep the cuts simple for silhouette-style designs.

With individual tools measuring approximately 4.3–6 cm tall, they are well suited to A6 and 5 × 7 inch cards while still being small enough to combine several tools in one arrangement.

Made from durable carbon steel, the dies are reusable and compatible with most manual and electronic die-cutting machines.


Please Note

Die set only is included. Photos may show example cuts to demonstrate the designs created by the dies.

This set is supplied connected and is intended to be separated before first use.

For best results, first gently twist the individual dies away from each other to separate the main frame. Once separated, any remaining connector tabs can usually be detached by gently wriggling and twisting them using small pliers or nippers. Depending on the set, some tabs may require careful trimming with fine snips if they do not release easily.

Measurements are approximate and taken from the outer cutting edge. Finished cuts will be slightly smaller.
