OK, just to clarify, Im familiar with using plasticard and the scour and break technique to 'cut' it. However, I always seem to have problems getting square cuts when using shorter, thinner lengths of plasticard ie less than 1.5mm thickness and less than about 50mm in length.
I use a small (metal) engineers square, about 75mm in size, to get my guide lines straight and while this is ok when using a thicker piece of card over 50mm in length, small, thinner lengths of card seem to flop about despite my best efforts to hold everything square. Also, because the card is so thin compared to the stock of the engineer's square, I cannot lay it on a cutting mat as the square then sits higher than the card (if you get my drift).
Is it just me or do others have this problem, any hints or tips!? TIA.
