Default Best Circle Cutting Tool
I'm looking to purchase some sort of Circle cutting tool/system. I had the original Fiskars Circle cutter but didn't have great results. What have you had luck with? Any input is appreciated!

My absolute favorite is the Creative Memories Custom Cutting System. I've used it for years, and I think it's the best on the market today.

I have to vote for the coluzzle. I use it quite a bit. I've had mine for quite a few years.

CM is easy, but if you tack down the paper the circle scissor does work better. I also make sure the inside wheel is turning easily before I insert the blade, sometimes it tends to bind and giving it a spin loosens the ball bearings.

Another loyal CM fan here. I just love their Custome Cutting System. You can cut so many different sizes with just three templates and three blades. It's great!!

I have both the Creative Memories cutting system and the Coluzzle. I love the CM system because you get flawless circles and ovals. I like my Coluzzel because of all of the shapes they offer, but those little tabs that you have to snip drive me crazy!!

Yes, my friend owns the circle and oval cutter from EK Success and absolutely LOVES them! She's tried tons of cutters and loves this one the most.

Default CM
I love the CM system. I bought the coluzze and threw it out, yes in the trash I hated it so much! I use the CM whenever I need a size that I do not have a punch for.

It just looks so easy to use.

how large of circles can you cut with either the CM or the new EK Success circle cutters?

I thought about the EK Success one but I didn't feel it went as small as I wanted. It cuts 2 1/4" to 7 1/2".

I have the EK Success cutter and I really like it. Seems to me that it is very similar to the CM one -- but a lot less expensive.
