Craft Robo Help PLEASE!

[craigsaz]

Hi-
I have a brand new blade in my CR. I am having trouble cutting my Stampin Up paper - does anyone have any ideas on what settings I need for the Craft Robo? How many o-rings? I remember when I first bought it I had the same problem but then I figured it out and now I can't remember and I am ruining a ton of paper trying to figure it out.

Thanks everyone!

I have a Wishblade and always have to make 2 cuts when using SU paper. I don't know the settings on a Craftrobo, but I bet if you went to the forums at www.ukscrappers.co.uk someone could help you. It's a great site with great templates.

Hi!
Do you have 3 different color blades? I used the pink and cut twice and it still would not cut through. It is a brand new blade. I tried the yellow cap and it still wouldn't cut through twice. I checked their forums and that is the advice they gave me. Thank you so much for writing back!!

Did your old blade cut through on 2 cuts before it got dull? You might try cutting 3 times. Usually I try to avoid using SU paper in my Wishblade because of the thickness. But sometimes that's the color you really need and then I just cut multiple times. It's been a while since I've cut SU and I can't remember how many tries it took. I try to use the cheapo cardstock from Michaels for cutting because it cuts like butter! This is one case of thicker not being better.

I have also found that the thicker the harder it is to cut! I usually use the pink blade w/one "0" ring and cut twice.

Pink cap with 1 o-ring and cut twice - works for me with my "old" blue Wishblade (new circa March 2006).

Thanks everyone!
I am going to purchase some new blades and if it doesn't cut - it is going to be on EBAY!!

Thanks!

Check here in their forum, They are so helpful. There are CB/Wishblade groups on Yahoo also.
