Just to let you know- you can add a back panel to your thinlet cards to give you more room to write a note on them. I have some pictures on my blog if you want to look- but basically cut an 81/2X11 sheet of paper in half like you would normally do for your A2 sized cards- line up the first side flush with the left hand side of the thinlet- take the remainder part of the paper and lay it OVER the back half of the die.......the part past the circle or label part. I hope that makes sense- It will make a crease where the paper goes over the die when you run it through- score on that line- now you have an extra panel.
If my description is clear as mud to ya- you can google it or you can look on my blog! Hope this helps! I really think it makes the cards more useable!!!

I've done that too and I LOVE it! Perhaps even more than the regular cut. It really gives a professional look. :)

waxed paper and a 90 degree turn

I did actually finally get it to cut through, but I had to add a shim (using CB, A+C+B) and roll the darn thing back and forth around 20 times, then pop it out a bit. Wow. Reminder to use thinner cs with the smaller dies! :)

Try a piece of waxed paper and when you run it through, turn the die 90 degrees, then run it back through. See if that helps.
