Silhouette Cameo - Initial Thoughts

[Dave271069]

in the silhouette software there are many designs shapes etc that can be purchased or gotten free, just before xmas i purchased a small gift box, this was then cut using the cameo but it cut out lots of tiny dots in a line which then gave me my fold lines, im guessing the answer to your questions is YES, YES, YES,

I assume that if you want to put score lines on a sheet (also assuming that it will do score lines) and cut out a shape, that you would just have to run the sheet through twice and so long as you have accurate registration marks in the waste area, two passes in register shouldn't be a big issue?

Yes, Arthur, you can do all these things.
I score & cut in one pass by setting up the scoring lines as "dashed lines" rather than continuous ones.

thanks for the replies - never considered a 'perforated' line instead of a score line, but then again I've never used a cutter and only seen one in the flesh once and that wasn't working!

So one question remains - how thick a piece of card will a Cameo cut reliably?
