I'm getting back into film again, and am planning on developing my own B&W while taking color film to the local lab. I did a quick search on this subject, and found that many people use scissors, slide cutters or dedicated film cutters. I have a carl rotary trimmer, similar to the one here:

Would this be suitable for cutting film? Also, I recently got a roll of 120 back from the lab; they did not cut it and slipped the entire roll into a sleeve. Can I cut the negs while still in the sleeve, or would that be wrong somehow?
