I realize this video is a couple of years old but as I only purchased the same oldest model a month ago then discovered I didn’t buy the same model as another well-know crafting RUclipsr, I found this video. I’m in 🇨🇦 so I, too, can’t seem to find blades. I emailed We R Memory Keepers and they assured me they do still make replacement blades. Anyone looking for them might want to reach out to them for help to find in your location. I’m awaiting a reply for where here I might be able to get some. Yes, there’s certainly “planned obsolescence” as someone commented, but I am happy that companies make improvements that work or make sense - as long as they still support/supply needs for older versions. I’m guessing The Paper Panda isn’t vlogging here anymore since no new videos since last year???
Thank you for watching, and for the great information! You are correct, I have been MIA for a while but with the craziness I’ve experienced of the past year it has been tough to record and edit and upload videos. Thanks again for watching 😊
I have had my trimmer for over a year and LOVE it!!!!! I have owned many trimmers and none compare to the newer model of We R Memory Keepers Trim and Score Board. The blades are extra sharp and can be changed easily. I love the scoreboard combination along with a trimmer!!!! And to have a place to hold my bone folder securely is wonderful!! Thank you Paper Panda for your review!!
Awesome! Thank you so much for watching 😊
Thank you I really needed this video today. I was confused about these differences and now I am clear. Thank you!!
Awesome! I’m really glad I could help! Thank you very much for watching 😊
Hi, this is my first time purchasing a WR memory keepers trim and score board. I did use a coupon and it was on sale! Lucky shopping day. The Martha Stewart trimmer I was using was ineffective on so many levels that I was frustrated every time I used it. I am going to buy blades every time I go to my craft store, so when they stop making them I will have a supply. Unfortunately, that happens way too often. Thanks for the demo and useful tips. Have a blessed day!
Awesome! Thanks for watching!
Oh my goodness, 3 yrs later and this is the best video on the WRMK cutter brands. It helped me a lot. I was looking for updated videos from you as they now have a third trim & score with a bigger cutter handle. I do not see where you posted in while. I pray that you are doing well and that we will see your work again soon! 🎉❤
Awww, thank you very much! I am doing fine, just life and time have stopped me from doing video. 😞 I’m really glad my video helped and I have seen that score and trim board. It is part of their line that has larger handles and grips to give people with limited grip strength access to do the crafts they love. Again, thank you very much for watching 😊
Yay. Glad you are doing well. Thank you again! 😊
Will the blades for this one fit the one with the bigger cutter?
Thank you for doing that video. I love my paper crafting! I'm a senior citizen and know the day is coming that I'll have to go into a care facility and if anyone thinks I'll go quietly and leave my beloved crafty past time behind, well they just started a war! But I have started looking into what things could I take and save space, and have wondered if I should get one of those as my current tools have been well used. and some are needing replacement. Appreciate you did this.
Awwww, you’re very welcome! It is a huge space saver. Thank you for watching!
Aw gee wilikers!!!!! 😑
SO, ME, the fool, bought the opened and used 'close out' older model for 20 bucks AS IS. AND the salesperson so nicely helped me get a 2 pack of new blades for it...(10 bucks) only to find out JUST NOW that they don't work on the older model!!! My blade needed changing but I couldn't get it out. Then I FINALLY found your video. Thanks for the review.
No wonder they were so happy just to get rid of it and not even tell me to not even bother to buy the replacement blades!!! Sheesh! 😡
Oh no! I’m sorry. You might be able to get the new version from a Joanns (if you have one close) with a coupon. They always have coupons. Thank you for watching 😊
Thank you for this review and demo. It enabled me to make an informed decision. Whew, I almost pulled the trigger on the older board! Dodged that bullet!!!
Awesome! I’m happy I could help. 😊
I just purchased this at Joanns with a coupon. Thank You! For all of the information that’s very clearly explained.
Awesome! So happy I could help. Thank you very much for watching. 😊
Thank you for this review. I am shopping for a 12x12 score board and had the old version one in my Amazon cart. Out it went after seeing that you cannot get new blades, and of course the features on newer one are better.
Awesome! Glad I could help. Thanks for watching 😊
I have the older version, and never knew what the long plastic piece was for, plus I no longer have the blades either. I'm just happy to have a score board. Thank you for this tutorial.
You’re very welcome, thank you very much for watching 😊
Great review. Thanks for taking the time to show us the differences between the old and new version. I am so glad it cuts "gooder"!!!
😂 I’m glad someone finally said something. Thank you for watching and I’m happy you enjoyed it 😊
@@thepaperpandacrafts2038 I'm all about using funny words or explanations for things.. I really enjoy your videos.
Hiiiii
Been crafting just under 1yr and I bought the "newer" version. It works really well!!. I found the replacement blades easy to find too. Loved that you showed the blades up close so I could see the difference. Have a great day and thanks for sharing
Glad you enjoyed the video 💕
Thank you very much
You can use an ordinary cutter in the old one instead of the blade. Just run it inthe groove next to the border . I tried it and it worked but in a different brand not we r
Thanks for the tip! And thank you very much for watching 😊
Just sat down at my craft table and got trim and score board out to use. I found out my replacement blade wouldn't fit. Got on Google and found you. Found that there is new board! I bought blades for it instead of for my old board! Thanks for all the info. I might as well toss it. You said you can't find replacements for the old one.
I enjoyed your video
Thanks again
Awesome! Glad I could help! Thank you very much for watching and for your kind words. 😊
Thank you for the explanation, I’ve seen both online and assumed one must be newer but I wasn’t sure which, at first I assumed the slightly more expensive was the newer one, but apparently not, so glad I saw your video first. I also noticed there is another version called trim and score comfort board, I think this must be the newest version, it looks like it’s just the blade handle that is bigger and maybe more comfortable to use.
Awesome! So happy I could help. Yes the new comfort board is part of we r memory keepers comfort line of tools. They help people that have issues with grip and dexterity by offering larger grips and handles on their tools. Thanks very much for watching! 😊
Thank you for the demo of the differences.
You’re welcome, thank you for watching! 😊
Thanks George. I have this on my Amazon wishlist. Your review help me with my decision to go ahead and purchase it.
Awesome, glad I could help! 😃
I JUST ORDERED MINE TODAY AND WILL GET IT SOMETIME THIS COMING SATURDAY ,I'VE NEVER USED ONE BEFORE
I’m sure you’ll love it! Thanks for watching 😊
Hi George, I also purchased a new board because finding replacement blades was hard/expensive. The fold spring in my old board had cracked as well. Did not realize the needles were different. Great 👍 review.
Thank you very much! 💕
I have the new score board ..LOVE it!! BUT I have a terrible time changing the blade..cut fingers and all..I manage to change it but there has to be an easier way!!😊
Yeah, it can be difficult to change the blades. 😓
Thanks for the review. I have the older version and managed to find replacement blades that didn't cost me an arm and leg. I've had mine less than a year and bought it at TM. I am planning on buying a new trimmer, eventually ,so I appreciate that you've shared the paper trimmers you've used.
You’re welcome! Thank you very much for watching, glad I could give some insight 😊
Never had that trimmer, thanks for the good word about it. I already have the scoreboard and both large and small spatulas, now I'm ready for a new trimmer so will definitely search to get me one. TFS this awesome idea and thoughts about this product.
No problem, thank you very much for watching! 😊
I'm looking into getting this, thank you for your review!
You’re welcome! Thanks for watching 😃
Oh wow they really improved it, huh?! Thank you!!! I need a paper trimmer and there's a huge sale at my Joanne's right now so been eyeing this. From videos on paper trimmers I hear having measuring and room for 12" x 12" and a scoring option and reasonably portable/compact/light are great things to look for! I see some are like $98 so this is way, way easier on my budget with me preparing my day planner shop. I imagine this can't cut chipboard but that can come later.
It is a great little trimmer! But you are correct it can not cut chipboard, at least not medium weight. It can probably cut cereal box but that’s all I’d try. Thanks again for watching 😊
Thank you. Good job.
You’re welcome, thanks for watching! 😁
Hi George 👋😃Thank you. Yes I like this trimmer and agreed with everything said. I’m definitely going to check it out. I do have the older version now I want the new one🎉💞😃👋
Hi Denise! Glad you liked the video and happy I could help in your decision making 😃 😊
Thank you very much for this excellent comparison!
Thank you very much for watching 😊
Thanks for the tip on the coupon will look for it.
Great info video, George! I have a gray version that’s in between the two you have. It has the locks like your older one, but it has an ever-so-slight groove sticking out from the flap piece (green edge) that seems to keep the paper from sliding underneath as easily. I didn’t even know they had a new version. I actually don’t use the trimmer part mainly because I forget it. I have a Tim Holtz guillotine. I should try to use my scoreboard trimmer more. Of course, my blades are like your older ones where the blade is is the middle so I wouldn’t be able to find replacements. I may end up buying the newer one because I like the darker number grid so much better. Thanks again for the “difference” video. I think this would make for an interesting series.
Thank you very much! Mine has that ridge and groove thing too but I still manage to push it under, I guess I just have a heavy hand 😆
Thanks for the info...I went tonight to get new blades and noticed they were different..I've had my board for a few years but now it looks like Santa will be bringing me a new one.
Awesome! Thank you so much for watching 😊
well done! thank you very much!!
Thank you for watching! ☺️
Thanks for the information! Now i know what to buy....
You’re welcome! Glad I could help 😊
Great review, George!! Thanks for breaking it all down! XOXO
Thank you, jean! 😊
Thanks for this video. Helped me to buy the best option
You’re welcome, glad I could help. Thank you for watching 😃
Thank you for introducing the new scoreboard, George! I have the older version and I really don't like it. I don't even use it anymore. The new one looks so much easier to work with. :)
The new one is really nice, I like it so much more. Thank you very much for watching 😊
Thank you I would get it even without the coupon. The nearest craft store in 86 miles one way. I live right by the Beautiful Pacific Ocean in Crescent City CA. It is a very small town. The only way you can get it it is. Three different ways is by going over a river. The other way is by boat or flying 🤔 😕 😩
Wow, that’s a long drive. When it’s that far you gotta make the trip worth it. Thank you for watching 😊
Great video, thanks!
You’re welcome, thanks for watching! 😃
You could show how to change the blade
Hi George! Hope you are having a great day. I didn’t catch if anyone answered your question about cleaning cutting mat. I used goo gone. Worked ok. Also, I’m starting to use @poshpaperlady suggestion to use parchment paper. She did under modge podge, but I’m just going to use it under tape, glue etc! See you later!
Awesome, Thanks for the tip! 😃 my mat gets so full of tape and glue residue, I’m always afraid it’s going to transfer to what I’m working on and dirty it up.
Update- got a glue eraser at dollar tree, it is cleaning up the mat!!
Hi ,Thank you for this video.Jere in Australia I have only seen the older version for sale.I was going to purchase on for approx $54 Aussie dollars.Not good when there are no replacement blades been made.I will not be purchasing older version.Hope I can find the new version here in Australia.
I love mine. But for some reason I can’t seam to part with the older one. I still use it from time to time 😂 thank you very much for watching. 😊
I'm glad I found your video. I bought the older version of the trim & score board after watching Posh Paper Lady. (I did not know it was an older version until now!) I was wondering why she kept flipping that blue piece completely over instead of just moving it out of the way when cutting. I am really ling the updated features on the newer version. I think I will probably upgrade as soon as I can. My biggest problem has always been trying to score at 5 1/2". That is pretty much where it folds to close and it always throws me off. Have you ever had that problem and if so is it better on the newer version?
The new trimmer/score board seems to be better. New and improved. Although I think it's awful you're made to buy the new device because they no longer make the blades for the older version. That's a devious business practice in and of itself.
But let's face it, you had no choice but to buy another one.😳
For better or worse, I have a fiscar cutter (I went with the scissor folks) and a separate score board. So far so good, although I've only had it about a year. I love my score board. No seam in the middle.
Thank you so much for watching! If I didn’t have the 50% off coupon I wouldn’t have bought it 😆
Great review.
Thank you! 😊
I have what you call the new version. Didn't know they had an old version. Learned something new. Thank you.
Also have you tried scoring from bottom up? It does help. Also I find it easier to cut as well from the bottom up, less paper slipping.
I do try and now cut from the bottom up and it does help a lot, I don’t know why I’ve never tried scoring from the bottom up. Thanks for the tip and thanks for watching! 😊
Hi George! 🌈
Hi! 💕 🌈
Thanks for sharing
Thanks for watching! 😊
hi forgot to ask does this have a place for the replacement blade?
I’ll have to check. I just moved and haven’t unpacked my craft room. As soon as I do I’ll definitely let you know 😊
Where can I get the blades for the newer one?
I have seen them on Amazon and Michael’s. Try eBay as well. Hope that helps, thanks for watching! 😊
I think it is the most obnoxious thing a company can do. Forcing people to buy their new product so they can make more money, it's called greed.
Yup, planned obsolescence. It’s sad but true. On a brighter note, thanks for watching 😊
👍👍💯💯
Good job.
Thank you 😊
Did you ever find the replacement blades for your older version? I just ordered for the new model and received the older ones That was my mistake. Found them on Amazon.
That’s odd. Maybe Amazon has a back stock of them and doesn’t realize there’s a difference 🤔
Hi, Geoge I thought it was just me that was trying to read those numbers. I just brought the old one in November ( being new to crafting) I will gave this one a shot..
Yeah, those numbers aren’t the best. I think Joann still has a 50% off coupon on the app. Thank you for watching 😊
Buy a new trimmer because you need blades? Everyone who says that have the new model: don’t you realize the same thing is going to happen after a year or two? I believe that’s called planned obsolescence.
It is unfortunate, but the second generation has been out for quite sums time now so hopefully they’ll keep making blades . Thanks for watching 😊
i JUST GOT THE SAME OLD VERSION AND MY FIRST CUT, MAYBE I JUST NEED TO PRACTICE ?
Practice makes perfect (or as close as we can get 😉)
thank you thank you thank you!!!!!!
You’re very welcome 😊 thank you for watching
Thanks for sharing this. How does the 5 1/2 inch tricky spot compare? My current blades also don't last at all and chew up my paper. On my wish list!
The 5 1/2 mark is still in a tricky spot but honestly I haven’t had any issues even with the old one, maybe I just don’t score at 5 1/2 a lot 😂 thank you for watching 😊
I'm having issues with chewed paper also, I have to tidy up with scissors after cutting. Can't wait to get a new one.
Very helpful
Thank you 😊
Does the blade drag along the turquoise part that you turn upside down? Does that part ever need replacing?
Thanks for sharing your review.
No, there is a groove that the blade slides through, so the only thing that the blade touches is what ever you’re cutting. Hope that helps, thanks for watching! 😊
@@thepaperpandacrafts2038 ah great stuff. Many thanks for your reply. 😊
I have problems with the blade, sometimes it doesn't cut well. Some advices?
How old is the blade? It could be that the blade is dull, try running it on some foil to sharpen it. I’ve tried that and it works sometimes. Also look closely at the blade sometimes paper fibers build up around it and that can cause it drag. Also if the blade is a little dull and you’re cutting against the grain of the paper it could be a pretty rough cut. Hope that helps. Thanks for watching 😊
Does the new one have an angle aspect to it?
No, unfortunately. Thank you for watching 😊
I am disappointed that the fold is at 5.5 inch mark which is a common score that I use.
I’m sorry. I eventually got a regular score board, I don’t like that it’s not compact but I don’t have to worry about the fold line. Thank you for watching 😊
hello i just purchased one of these from amazon and they sent me the older version. the numbers on the left hand side to not aline with the score mark. how is it on this newer version do they aline? and thank you so much for this helpful video i will be returning the one i JUST got in the mail and purchasing the newer version.
Hello, thank you so much for watching. I’m sorry that the numbers didn’t line up. As far as I can tell the numbers line up on the new version but double digit numbers might be printed to one side. Also it might depend if your using inches and centimeters. They might line up differently. Hope this helps and thanks again for watching 😊
@@thepaperpandacrafts2038 wow you replied so fast thank you! it does help. i enjoyed your video very much.
Not satisfied !!!
The ruler is the wrong way round, so don't hold tightly small precise edges that you have to cut
I can’t tell if your unhappy with the video or with the product. But either way, thank you for watching 😊
@@thepaperpandacrafts2038
I am from Holland excuse, it is for my very difficult English.
What i mean is, if you want to cut very small edges , this is not possible, because the ruler is actually at the wrong side keeping the paper down, because now it does not hold the paper when i cut very small egdes. You now what i mean ?
@@thepaperpandacrafts2038
I have get it from yesterday and i am very dissapointed
I know what you mean, 👍 I haven’t found a cutter that is good at small edge cuts. Thank you again for watching 😊
