Is the blade depth the same for both mat and matless cutting?
@SwiftCreekCustoms8 сағат бұрын
@@marybcreative for me yes, however, perform your test cuts. That is the only way to know what will work. If someone is using a thick cutting mat, their settings may be different than someone cutting matless because the blade would be closer to the mat & material, which could affect the settings.

Hi. New to Juliet. If my mat is not sticky on my other cutter I will use painters tape to stick my material to the mat. Can I do this with the Juliet? I realize that tape may mess up paper but I have a work around that I use so it doesn’t rip my paper. Thanks.
@SwiftCreekCustoms3 күн бұрын
@@marybcreative you can try but if the design doesn't cut correctly, the lines don't meet up, or the material moves.... It's not a machine fault that it's not working. Materials should be held down completely when cutting in order for the cut lines to meet and things not to shift or get jammed in the machine.

@SwiftCreekCustoms13 күн бұрын
@@angelahackwell1838 does it read on regular cardstock? If so, then it's working properly and is most likely the reflection off the shiny material interfering. Think of the camera as looking directly into the sun & trying to see something. That's what the camera sees. You can try things like turning down the lights or covering the marks with a matte tape, but it may take some attempts to see if it will read.

@SwiftCreekCustoms21 күн бұрын
@@kyrill_ it would not be great at it for several reasons... It would need to be super thin for the clearance of the machine. Less than 3 mm approximately. And the debris created by etching could be damaging to the insides of the machine mechanism if the sawdust or wood pieces got into the bottom roller bar mechanism. If you want to etch or engrave on wood, I'd recommend a laser machine.

I’m a new user (previously a Cricut user) I found that after adding an offset to text you can “slice” away the center of the offset leaving the outline of the offset and the original text using the ‘stamp’ (the two squares that overlap with a space cut away from the overlap) so there is a 3rd option in Pro

Hi, I've tried to calibrate my machine multiple times and follow the advice in this video. However, my machine keeps cutting inaccurately on the left and bottom of my shape (not cutting enough). I've had the machine for almost a year now and never really had to cut geometric shapes until now. Do you have any suggestions?
@SwiftCreekCustomsАй бұрын
Start over and use all the defaults. Get a brand new cutting mat that is completely flat and if you are using Juilet, only have 2 rollers on the cutting mat on the very edges of the mat and not on the adhesive. kzbin.info/www/bejne/lX6te3mvd6uClbcsi=iesbe0erj5uHXSJJ If you still have issues after following all of that, please contact Siser Support for further assistance. I have never had to calibrate my machines. While you see a lot of people out there suggest it, it is always the last thing we recommend and only if all cuts of every single object on a page are off the same distance. That is when calibration might help.
