The Genesis Paper Trimmer
A precision Genesis Paper Trimmer is the perfect gift
for an artist,
photographer or paper crafter -- or anyone who wants perfect cuts on cardstock,
paper, photographs or film.
Why? Because it will be used every day for precision cuts on every
project, and because it is made by hand in the USA and will last a lifetime.
If Santa didn't leave a Genesis Trimmer under
your Christmas tree,
you can do something special for yourself after the holiday! Genesis
Trimmers orders usually ship within 24 to 48 hours, and transit time to most
U.S. locations is five business days or fewer!

Genesis Trimmer with Edgelight & Guide Bar
Genesis Trimmers are made in the USA!
The Genesis Trimmer is a precision paper trimmer that
offers a unique accessory: a light that shines through paper, cardstock
and photos to illuminate the exact cutting line. The Genesis is made in
the USA and for more than 40 years, it has long been
the favorite paper trimmer for professional photographers, newspapers,
architects and film companies.
Over the last 13 years, the Genesis Trimmer has been discovered
and embraced by professional crafters and artists, and this new market has sent
demand for Genesis Trimmers through the roof. Because the original
manufacturing company was very small, a long waiting list for Genesis
Trimmers developed, but we purchased the company in 2007, caught up on the
waiting list orders and we've increased production in order to get Genesis
Trimmers out more quickly for new customers.

16" Trimmer
with Edgelight
Hands down, the most popular Genesis Trimmer
is the 16" model with edgelight. This versatile trimmer
has been our best-seller for more than a decade. The
16" size is the best choice for those who cut
12"x12" paper because it will cut that size paper in
both directions.

$390.00

Edgelight Demonstration
The Genesis edgelight attaches directly to the 16"
trimmer, and it shines upward through paper, cardstock or photos
to show you your exact cutting line. The edgelight is particularly valuable when
cropping photos, cutting along a diagonal line (as in the
example above), and creating an even margin around a rubberstamped
image. The Genesis Edgelight can be shipped with the
16" Genesis Trimmer, but to avoid breakage, it is not
attached to the trimmer before shipping. Attaching the
edgelight takes less than 10 minutes, start to finish, and
directions are included with each edgelight.

Genesis
cutter wheel
with gear
Genesis Trimmers use a unique
gear-driven rotary cutting system. Genesis cutter wheels
stay sharp for an extraordinarily long time, but after years of
use (or constant daily use over time), the sharpened edge will
begin to wear away. When cuts are no longer crisp
and even, it is time to replace the cutter wheel.
Replacement cutter wheels come with a new brass gear attached.
You'll need an Allen wrench
to remove the old cutter wheel and install the new one.
Genesis cutter wheels are universal and can be used with all
sizes of Genesis Trimmers.

Carriage Assembly
Companies and individuals who use Genesis Trimmers
five days a week, 52 weeks a year, for YEARS may eventually need to replace a trimmer's
cutter wheel, idler gear and/or nylon bearing. The Genesis carriage
assembly includes all of these essential parts already assembled by expert
Genesis technicians and tested by quality control. To replace the
carriage, you'll just unscrew the ends of the slide bar, slide the old
carriage off, slide the new one on and re-attach the original handle. The installation process is
simple, quick and foolproof -- and the result is almost like getting a brand new trimmer!
A new Genesis carriage assembly replaces 10 essential trimmer parts at once,
including the carriage itself, the cutter wheel, gear,
bushing and axle; idler gear and screw; nylon bearing; and a new washer and nut
for the handle. (Handle is not included, but is available separately.)
Genesis carriage assembly $69.00
