Re: Provinol seam trimmer


Just out of curiosity, what do you plan on using it for? I think I remember Mike Sahli using it on konecto for something or other.

Re: Provinol seam trimmer


I had one but let an installer use it to try it out, never got it back. I played with it on some vinyl samples and it worked good. This was at l;east 5 years ago when the company was just bringing them out. I smoosed a guy out of it in Vegas. German made I believe, Takes a round blade. If I come up with it Barry its yours.

Re: Provinol seam trimmer


The Provinol is one way to modify the end of a piece of konecto to change directions. Works well becouse you can set the width and depth of the cut.

Set the blade to 1 inch from the guide and the depth of the Konecto back.

Cut off the Konecto with a VCT cutter, heat the back of the Konecto with a heat gun, push the Provinol cutter through the Konecto, heat and peal of the backing, use Konecto adhesive to bond pieces together.

I didn't look around too much, so you may be able to find one cheaper but here's a link to where you can purchase one : PROFLOOR Provinol Seam Cutter, Quality Flooring Tools at Wholesale Prices, Burke Tools, Tools That Work
