        I just use an ordinary pair of dividers with one of the pins sharpened to a flat knife like shape. Cuts masking tape with out tearing and can even manage plastic card.

          Got mine from Hobby Craft. Not sure of the model, i think this is the one that the guys are talking about, comes with spare blades in a compartment on the back. A great tool ive even cut Evergreen Styrene with it.
