Did they use a jig with two side walls that the strips were fed through so the strips could not move from side to side and splay out when the singles were being cut? If that type of jig were used I'd expect the top few strips to slide forward once the blade hit them unless they were somehow clamped.

Can anyone elaborate on the process and I apologize if this has been discussed before.
Bill Mastro says a exacto knife and metal ruler work best, PSA agrees. Sorry couldn't resist.
