Basic blanking dies for cutting flat, outline shapes

Very inexpensive dies for shapes up to approx. 4.5″x 6.5″. Price ranges from $30 to $300 and more. Most small basic dies are $75 or less . Larger, and more complex dies can get pricey, but are still far below the cost of conventional tooling .

These blanking dies can be made to cut sheet metal as thick as needed, but extra thickness drives prices up quickly . They will also work on papers such as cardstock and watercolor paper, thin (but not extremely thin), and non-brittle plastics like ‘friendly plastic’ and ‘thermoplastic’ sheet.
