Does it run down the angle so you don't pull back like you need to for
sciccors? What make/model, can't say I've ever spotted one in a shed
but I've not been looking that hard.

No make on it I'm afraid. Bought from IIRC Homebase, but many years ago.
Uses a sort of rotating small pair of scissor blades. And, yes, it goes
into a right angle - like between ceiling and wall etc so you don't pull
back the paper. It doesn't give as perfect cut as scissors, but more a
very fine wavy one - a bit like a perforated edge. You'd have to look
close to see this, though.
