Ellison Machine

The Ellison machine is used to cut shapes out of any material which can be cut by scissors. A large number of dies are available for use. Decorations, bulletin boards, and student manipulatives are some of the uses of materials made with the Ellison machine. If you haven't used the Ellison machine before, please ask a staff member to show you how. There are a couple of tips which make it easier to use and prevent wear and tear.
