ABSTRACT:
A device for holding and cutting a thin plate of sheet material such as glass or plastic into a plurality of smaller rectangular plates with a hand-manipulated tool. A rigid base is formed with a recess which forms a depressed platform for receiving and firmly holding a plate therein. A pair of spaced posts are mounted on the base and are located at opposite sides from each other. A template is removably mounted on the base by the posts which extend into a selected pair of a plurality of holes formed in the template. A plurality of spaced, linearly extending grooves are formed in the template for guiding a cutting tool in a straight line when cutting the plate which is mounted between the base and template. The template is rotated 90.degree. and repositioned on the base posts after the plate is cut in a first direction by the cutting tool which is moved along one or more of the template grooves, whereby the template grooves then form guides for cutting the plate in a transverse direction with respect to the previous plate cuts. Selection of the appropriate grooves determines the size of the smaller plate or plates cut from the main plate.
