I am new to the Cameo 3 and dont want to mess anything by trying it without asking for your professional advice! (I totally trust you!) Do you think the cameo with a deep cut blade can handle this? I am assuming you just wouldn't use a mat, right?

Click on that button. then choose the material from the (right side) side bar on the bottom. You will see TWO sets of arrows to go up on down. the inside arrows give you different material choices. Once that is chosen click on the outer arrows to bring up a your blade settings. Here you will find thickness (depth or pressure of blade) and speed choices. Also, a little lower will be a box to choose double cut. There are even more choices, but if you google youtube using those choices you can learn a lot. Good Luck!

With that said. my machine is several years old and out of warranty. I guess that would be not different that this blade. There are issues with getting a holder that is not defective and fits in the holder as they are made in China. Yet, I paid $36 for a holder and 15 blades (5 each angle). I would say that the Silhouette Blade would go dull sooner than my 15 blades. Although I have not tested all the materials you have I would guess they would do the same. Nice to know about this blade though.

If you look at the 2 blades side by side the cutting tip on the regular blade set at 10 is the EXACT same length as the cutting tip on the Deep Cut at 20. I tried to cut material that is 1.58 mm and it would NOT cut all the way through with the Deep cut blade and the Cameo 2 Machine. Total waste of $20+.K.

I have tried this a couple of times tonight. The first couple of cuts do just fine but then I can see that the blade moves up in the housing just a bit. I got good cuts if I placed my finger on top but that caused it to drag across the entire surface with scratches. I thought maybe putting some washi around it might give it enough cushion to keep it in place. Anyone else have the same issue?Reneehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16083338614507122242noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7021963321489275438.post-50111270837864975182016-01-20T12:38:03.824-05:002016-01-20T12:38:03.824-05:00Question; How do I input blade depth settings abov...Question; How do I input blade depth settings above 10 on the Cameo?
