Not a home product but i use laser cutters at a local shop here in SF.

Maybe you could find somewhere that has one you can use by the hour to save having to invest.

Hi,

This is totally off-topic but this list is full of people who are creative beyond After Effects.

I'm wondering if anyone knows or has experience with a consumer level product that will cut paper shapes designed in illustrator (or similar programs).  I'm imagining something like a printer, but instead of printing onto paper it cuts it.

A home laser cutter would be perfect but I haven't found any that are suitable (or cheap enough) for domestic use.

Craft websites suggest that a product called the "klic n kut" is the closest thing to what I'm after, but I'd like to hear from someone who's used one before I make a purchase, and it's not like these things are common or cheap:

Advice, feedback, suggestions are all welcome.

PS. And to compensate for being so OT, one of my favourite keyboard shortcuts is the alt + double-click on the hand icon to re-centre the composition view (with the view window selected).
