4 cups is A lot if plastic. The more you have in a container the longer it will maintain enough heat to continue dipping.  Stirring periodically is important as well. It keeps an even temperature through the container. If you don't stir it it will form a film on top of cooler plastic. Stir it before this film had a chance to form.

Try a roller cutter you won't go back to your old way, bit expensive up front but well worth it the blades are for fabric cutters put them on a small paint roller and bam you got yourself a production cutter.

 

You happen to have a picture of one built? Sounds like a great idea.

Hey guys sorry I passed mine on when I went to tube molds but it's quite simple to make google "fabric blades" they are round and somewhere around 2-2 1/2 inches in diameter you alternate blade then a washer to as wide as needed and put them on a small narrow paint roller then just get yourself a plastic cutting board or cutting platform of choice and have at it
