Shaving a deck

[Mr.Book]

Hello all, do any of you shave your own decks? If so, what methods have worked best for you?

Many thanks for your time,

I use fingernail clippers for the corners. If I need a short corner of course. I haven't found any good way to shave the edge of a deck.

I also use fingernail clippers for corner shorts and a 400 grit sandpaper to make hourglass shaped cards i.e. the Aces.

I use a Bypass Paper Trimmer and a Sunstar Corner Rounder. Check our James Riser's instructions HERE for trimmer.

Thank you all for your suggestions, I will definitely be experimenting with the nail clippers.

Thanks all, the sunstar corner rounder looks like a winner and a great time saver.

The small section of the corner rounder is a perfect match for playing cards. It makes short cards or strippers invisible by removing the "flat" section of the edge.

I use fine sand paper to make short cards. There is likely a better method mentioned above, but it works for me. I scallop out my short card so the corners are unaffected and it is only short in the middle. Good for fine tuning also. 4-way nail buffer for buffing, but the the roughest section seems to remove a good amount of material and could likely be used for that too.
