Abstract

A method and apparatus for sizing a slat window blind to an exact width at the point of purchasing using the level of operator skill typically found in retail outlet. The invention is particularly adapted for use in connection with a type of blind in which a number of individual, horizontally disposed slats are spaced vertically apart from one another along flexible lines, often referred to as ladder cords, and which have a flat or slightly curved cross-sectional configuration. Often such slats are approximately one inch in width and frequently the term 'mini blind' has been applied to this type of article.
