Glad it helped:) Thank you for watching!

I'm glad the video was helpful. If you run into alignment issues with your cutter, I have a few videos that might help. Otherwise, good luck with the cutter, and thank you for watching! 🙂

Thank you so much for your very kind words! 🙏🏾Hope you’re having a successful homeschool year. 🙂

Sorry, the version you purchased was challenging to work with. 😔 Thanks for sharing your experience; I hope this helps others. 🙏🏾

That's a great idea, too! Mine has a few small top drawers that can attach to the top. This way, I can still use them if I rearrange the room.🙂

Thank you. I appreciate your support. 💙

Not yet, sorry. I'm hoping I can. I haven't given up yet, though, with what little time I get to work on it. If I get it fixed, I will post it and comment here.

@ Totally understand! Also homeschool momma here and my time is so cherished lol Thank you, for the quick response. I enjoy you videos.

👋🏾Hello fellow homeschool mama! Thanks for checking out some of my videos. 🙏🏾 All the best for the rest of the school year.

You are so welcome! All the best with your decluttering and organizing process! 🙂

Thank you for your kind words, and for watching the video.💙

Thank you! 🙏🏾

Nice! I hope you can get to know your machine soon:) Thank you so much for watching the video! Happy sewing!

Hi. I’m glad the video was helpful! Happy learning! 😊

Hi. I am glad you found it helpful. 💕 Thank you for watching! 🙂

Thank you so much! 🙏🏾 I hope the video can help you get it running, and I am glad you found the content helpful.

yes. the same with VEVOR support. They keep sending me the user manual and I need the assembly manual and blade adjustment manual.

Hi. I'm glad the video was helpful to you. Praying you overcome your fear of making a mistake soon:)🙏🏾 Any mistake you make as you learn is constructive, as you will know what not to do:) Good luck to you!

@MommyShareSpace 😊😊

Yeah it’s a decent size and weight. But so useful. Good luck with your machine. Thanks for watching!

Hi, I am happy the video was helpful to you:) This is another of my videos ---> kzbin.info/www/bejne/aXjYd5WNn5dmg7s It has a section explaining the issue and showing resolved. The time stamps are:- 06:14 Readjusting The Metal Plate-Work With Me and 9:13 No More Incomplete Cuts- Demonstrating Results I hope that helps, and thank you for watching the video!

Thank you 🙏🏾 for watching:)

Hi. Yes, it can all be overwhelming sometimes, and I hope that soon you can get to a place where you can take it one day at a time. 💙 The only complaints if I were to have one with FLL would be: 1-For a child that grasps concepts quickly, it will seem repetitive. But even with that, I credit FLL (and lots of reading!) for her understanding of grammar. But for kids that require repetition, it's excellent! 2- It has to be done with a parent/teacher, and the levels 3 and 4 workbooks only have the activities. My eldest child did writing rhetoric for a while and loved it. All the best in your homeschooling journey.

Hi. Great question. Wanted to look into it further. Double-checked, and it is not recommended. The formula of wd-40 is not suited for a binding machine. It can cause oil buildup, make the machine cease, and possibly cause malfunction. It is recommended that the oil be formulated for binding machines. Hope that helps. Thanks for watching!

Hi, engineereuler1762. Thank you so much for your kind and thoughtful words. I am happy that you found some of the cutter videos helpful. I appreciate your support. 🙏🏾 That's great you were able to find a deal on your cutter! I hope you can get it up and running soon. I can make a video sharing the bolts I've noticed so far that have loosened over time, especially along the blade. I had called around my local machine shops about sharpening the blade, and at the time, it was about $30 US, which is close to the price I paid for the blade. Places to call around will be metalwork shops, and some hardware stores have scissors and knife sharpening services. Or Googling guillotine knife sharpening near me. I also read online that someone took theirs into a shop, and because they needed to figure out the angle of the blade slope, the shop took off too much, and now their blade is useless. I'll have to do some more research on that myself. I ended up purchasing another blade as it was more convenient. That was a few years ago because I accidentally cut through a staple. Plus, at the time, I thought the cost to sharpen was a lot. Now I have two blades. I was considering sharpening the extra one myself. I am hesitant about the safety of the course and if I will change the blade's angle too much, which will affect the cut. But KZbin is a great resource, so I'll see. I hope that helped:) And again, thank you!

@@MommyShareSpace thank YOU for deciding to spend the time on the detailed reply. We are all super busy people and it was very generous of you. I totally agree that buying makes more sense than sharpening or trying to find someone to do it even though it is sad to have to throw away a beautifully made and heavy part like one of those blades only for a tiny missing piece after a staple cut (I think mine has two of those missing less than 1mm diameter pieces). I can't wait for your next video and until then, I'll do my homework of studying you old dozen or so guillotine videos again and see if there are any others in other people's channels.

You’re welcome:)

Hi, Yes, they will. I tested to make sure, measuring it next to my daughter's piano book. Construction paper is the same length, and it worked perfectly! It leaves just enough room for one coil at the top and bottom, which is enough to cut and crimp. It cuts it close, but it works! Sorry for the late response. I was Ill. Best wishes. Thank you for watching!

@@MommyShareSpace Thank you!

Hi, Yes, your understanding is correct. Smaller books around 100 pages or less will not need much margin and might do fine on the 2.5mm setting. If it's over 100 pages but less than 200 pages, the middle setting, or 4.5mm, will be perfect. For anything more significant than 200 pages, the last setting on this machine, a 4.5mm setting, might be best. The frequency of page turning and how much available margin also need to be considered. I often leave my machine on the 4.5mm setting, and most times, it has worked out great. Because many of the books I bind are for kids, the larger books sometimes fall apart a bit. If I was binding for someone else, I might be more meticulous about adjusting the margin allowance. Sorry for the late response. I was Ill. All the best to you, and thank you for watching!

@@MommyShareSpace Thanks for the specifics!

I am glad the videos were helpful 🙏🏾 and I hope you get your cutter up and running soon. Thank you for watching!

Yay, I was about to respond to your last comment. I am glad the videos were helpful. Thank you for watching!

Hi, I am glad it was helpful:) I used a Screwdriver Set with magnetic bits. One without interchangeable bits but still magnetized might even be better, so you don't need to manage the bits wanting to come off while working. But they work well enough:) Luckily they are not too expensive. The screwdriver bits I used are in imperial measurements. Any set with the small screwdrivers should work. Thank you for watching!

@@MommyShareSpace Thank you, again for your help!!! Your kindness is truly appreciated. ;)

Thank you for you kind words!🙂

I know what you mean. I want to look at our writing progress as a step in the right direction and fight the urge to buy every writing resource! I need to do better with that, lol. Wishing you all the best in the new school year!

Hi. Last year, using the children's Bible my youngest is still using, I read to them at the table, and we discussed while they ate:) This year, before they outgrow the series, on Wednesdays, we would be watching the Greatest Heroes and Legends of the Bible DVDs together on Wednesday mornings and discussing. This is usually a slower morning for us anyway:) Later in the year, we will do 2 or 3 of the kid's Bible plans using the YouVersion Bible App. We have done some before, and the kids enjoyed it. I hope I answered your question. Thanks for watching!

It really is! If you're a chocolate person, Lilly's chocolate is a great option as a topping😊. Low cabs and low sugars. Thank you for watching!

You’re welcome:) I am glad it helped. Thanks for watching!

You're welcome 🙂. I am glad it was helpful. Thank you for watching!

Hi CJ:) Sorry for the late response. I remember you sharing that you also took a break from the program. I need that scripted approach to help where more work is required in Grammar. That's one of the things I like about FLL. It will be very involved at this stage, but it's what we might need to do to move forward a bit stronger. Did you happen to share what you're using? If so, I'll check it out. I'm always looking for tips in Grammar and Writing. Thank you for watching, and I wish you all the best in the new school year as well. 💙

I saw your video where you mentioned what you will be using. :)

Hi:) Sorry for the late response. I would say it depends. In my case, I am choosing to go back to a more scripted one-on-one approach with my daughter, as it would be more beneficial than her moving forward to level three in Fix It Grammar at this time. Because level 3 and 4 of FLL have to be done with the parent/teacher involved, that should also be considered. However, if I had thought that going through a specific trouble topic, say using the glossary (I just did this with one of them, and now she understands a topic she didn't get before) would be enough and that she could do most of it on her own successfully, I probably would have just moved forward- maybe at a slower pace. I hope sharing that might be helpful. Thank you for watching the video and commenting. All the best in the upcoming school year!

@@MommyShareSpace thank you so much for your response! Yes, it does help. You’ve given me some good points to think about. I hope you guys have a fantastic school year! ☺️

I'm glad it was helpful! I hope your setup goes smoothly. Thank you for watching the video. All the best!

🙂 Thanks for watching!

Hi! Thank you. 🙂. After looking back at the goals for levels 1 and 2 in the FLA and the final review and glossary of terms in level 1, if your daughter did some grammar in grade 1 and had no struggles, it should be fine to start with level 2. Level 1 covers the basics, which are reviewed at the beginning of Level 2. The schedule, in my opinion, depends on the child. If it will be easier for you, you can start with the schedule they suggest, 20 minutes per day for 3-4 days) just to get started. But, from my experience, you will soon be able to tell the pace that would work best for you and your daughter early on. Also, some lessons might be easier to complete in a sitting, especially in the beginning, so we often would continue the lesson the next day for longer ones. In the teacher's section of the book, they even state it's better to do less and do it and do it correctly:) There will also be those times when faster will be better, and you will know:) A lesson per day sounds fine. Ultimately, unless life happened, we were doing a lesson from Tuesday to Thursday. (I checked my old planner). Sorry for the long response, but hopefully that helps. All the best in the upcoming school year! 🙂

Glad it was helpful! Thank you for checking out the video:)

Thanks so much for the recommendations:) And for watching the video! All the best for the new school year. 💙

@timamariejohnson7520 I would have to disagree. I don’t think that pointing out your country’s flaws makes you unpatriotic. I feel like people who look at America through a different lens are often unjustly labeled unpatriotic. I love America but she still has a lot of work to do. You can love your country and still acknowledge her flaws. Just my two cents 😊

Thank you very much for checking out the video, and all the best with your homeschool plans for the upcoming school year!😊

Hi, I recently bought it. :) I just have to decide if I will start off the new semester with this curriculum to give us more time with it or move on to WWS. I definitely plan to use WWS with my two younger kids at some point. My eldest now wants to focus on fiction writing though, so it's between this and Writing With Sharon Watson. I appreciate your support.💙 I should have my homeschool year in review up in a couple of days if that video interests you. Thank you for watching, and all the best for the upcoming school year.

Hello. Some of my comments have not been showing up in YT Studio, so I apologize for the late response. If the information is still valid, yes, it does. If you disengage the last six, maybe seven pins, you will punch 8x10 paper.

Glad it was helpful! Thanks for watching!

Hi, I am glad the video helped. Thank you for watching.
