Here is a tip for creating crescent shapes with your disc cutter
from @lostrabbitstudio - "I needed to create a crescent shape with a small disc but didn't want to fumble around with using my saw or spend the time filing it down only for it to come out uneven. I also didn't want to try to align the small disc in my disc cutter by blindly pushing it around. So, I take a piece of clear tape about the length of my finger, place the small bit of metal in the middle, and then fold the tape over, sticky side to sticky side. This allows me to mark where I need to cut, easily place the metal where it needs to be in the disc cutter, and retrieve the metal once I'm finished." So smart! Thank you so much for sharing this with us! I love my disc cutter from Pepe and this same technique would also work great in general when you want to cut a circle from a very small piece of metal! :) Share your tips and tricks with us!
