Woohoo, my disc cutter finally arrived (and customs wasn't too bad, although I did have to drive a fair way to pick it up.)
I've been playing with it all day, cutting discs in various sizes. I now have a lovely pile of holey scrap, and some pretty discs. However, the discs all seem to need some serious sanding/ filing around the edges, which is where my question comes in.
I'm cutting cookies sheet (fully annealed/ soft), with the plastic left on to protect it. I'm using a 1lb brass hammer, cut lube on the punches and bashing them whilst the cutter sits on a rubber base.
Should the discs be coming out with rough edges or am I doing something wrong?
Thankyou in advance!
