DIES FOR THE HYDRAULIC PRESS

I created a few shapes with my Cameo Silhouette today and cut them out on card stock. The 3" plexiglass pieces have a paper coating on both sides to protect the surface, so it was easy to trace the patterns. I chose three and drilled a small hole in each so I could insert my spiral blade.


Cutting with the spiral blade was really a slow process. It took much longer than cutting through metal. These blades are very sturdy and I wonder if they ever break. I was using a #4. Here I am half way done cutting out the heart shape!

Finished! I have the others to do and hopefully will try out one tomorrow.
