Hello
I intend to start with Palamos ( Occre ) and I have seen videos with beautiful desk planking , but it's necessary to have a massicot
I have seen the one of Amati, but you, which one do you use ?
price is 35 euros, but I live in Thailand and price of transport and custom will be more expensive than the massicot; I have not seen any here
I have to buy it in Europe or Amazon

btw, I am French and the use of the word " guillotine " for massicot sounds very strange for me, it's a word that we use for death penalty or French revolution
any way, without the "guillotine ", I can't do the beautiful deck planking that I want
thanks for your responses

Hi Nongri
I would recommend to you to buy a a cutter made of metal.I had a cutter made out of abs (rigid plastic) from a leading shipmodel maker.I had problems while cutting the same multiple angle or lengths so i have now one from www.rptoolz.com .It is not that cheap but a good tool pays itself.
Another important thing i want to mention is the cutted edges of thick materals were not vertical but v-shaped ,so they need a correction afterwards .
Due to the sharpening of the blade, the cut is slightly v-shaped. For thicker materials, this is more visible. The blade push the material left or(and) right.
Any two sharp edges blade has a similar cutting face, regardless of manufacturer or use.
There is only 1 company that makes 1 side blade. The german Martor. They have a single edge blade which helps to avoid this high V shape but this cut also will not be a total 90 degree. These trapezoid blades you can also fix with the 2 nearest holes.
If you want to find this blade :

Thanks, I have seen the cutter from rptoolz, it's very good but too much expensive for me ( I am not still an expert in models )
I have choosen Master Cut from Amati https://www.amatimodel.com/fr/outil...le/produit-master-cut-coupe-onglet-b7386.html
better to buy directly from Amati ( 17.62 € , other shops sell it 2 to 4 times more expensive ( Made of sturdy plastic and metal construction )

Also see the thread "Amati Stripwood Guillotine", might be some valuable reading there too.

Amati Stripwood Guillotine.

If these work ok on hard materials like walnut veneer I could see one being useful to me. Does anybody have an opinion to share on this tool?

The term here in the U.S. at least, is not common, but it is a valid term for an industrial machine with a razor sharp blade used to evenly-cut sheet materials such as reams of paper, cloth, leather and rubber, to an even size.

yes, I have seen this thread and it does not seem to be very good
so I change my mind, I think to choose for the micro-markt https://www.ebay.com/itm/374004923164?epid=5053136079&itmmeta=01HTRGF7H4QZWW7NCHR7AYMYCN&hash=item57146e3b1c:g:14UAAOSwvLJhuO07&itmprp=enc:AQAJAAAA8GCXucUbbDPYjERM+MmQpdh1hKguGydmXyTlYmFxZzgp72HalHzUjZkotyVqtDXVXd3i05gCS+4EQM1mw4fcU5VyDqUZbrpriYxV1wEMC7djvaXCifHsGVd4Yn+QIYtJTPWzCb2BC6oCT1NF6Tp1crUAoxvuEAsJM0QBhcXN0FTSi/DcZ4u3rITviZQeHJX8bSe63lbulQ67JkXSrfKHZaCUv2QaZTVxmbwKNCq9+cRlYoFcaVOFwNgVt4mJmHI7iA2WzejRbDecgP/0Uut0PgRMdQrae9Ksmga7JLgXBlz0YHOPEWg4jfmLCNcL0Y6ojw==|tkp:BFBMzPi8kNZj
the others are surely very good, but I want to try the micro-markt first
