Beattie's Ultimate Strip Guide, $18.95
This Canadian designed device allows you to cut strips easily from 1/2" up to 2" across, in 1/8" intervals. Place your glass on a wooden board with a piece of trim along one edge. Pick a width, place your Toyo cutter against that notch at the top edge of the glass, and pressing it against the wood trim to stay straight, slide it the length of the glass, keeping the cutter in place. Sounds a little complicated, but it is very easy. It also comes with a triangle for cutting perfect diamonds with no wasted glass.
