Possibly even a small utility knife for such large pieces.

I also use a razor scraper for helping to lift my prints off the bed (they stick really really well to the glass with hairspray.)

Just buy a few replacement blades. If you have any prints with stubborn supports, especially circular, you will be glad to have replacements.....like I need now and just ran out of smile

I have to cleat out stringers about 4" deep I tride using a 1/4" wood chisel but it does not do a clean job of cutting off the stringers. Does anyone have a suggestion of what to use.

Thanks
Dale
