Logan 301-1 Compact Classic mat cutting system
What this tool is for
The Logan 301-1 brings the guide rail and work surface together for rectangular mat windows. It is worth comparing when you want the board supported in a known position for each side of the window. Measure the actual sheet, including the margins you will trim away, before you decide whether it fits the setup.
Logan describes the 32-inch capacity between the hinges and documents a separate open-end method. If your sheet is near that dimension, check which edge must pass under the rail and read the open-end instructions before planning the cut.

Questions about this tool
Does the 32-inch figure describe the artwork opening?
It describes the board dimension at the hinges in the standard setup. Work from the full sheet and the planned cut orientation.
Will the mat guide set a wide border near 4½ inches?
The listing and Logan’s published descriptions give different upper limits for the guide. Confirm the setting with Logan if the project depends on the widest position.
Would a handheld cutter be enough for one small print?
If you already have a suitable straight guide and a flat surface, a handheld cutter may suit an occasional window. A board-mounted setup gives you an integrated rail.
