i'm having the EXACT same problem with mine, blade depth, pressure, offset doesn't makea difference, tried different blades, different vinyls, nothing really helps, i'm thinking these are just poorly made/designed cutters, some have defects, and im thinking to just buy a used roland gx-24 which are known to last at least 10 years, for almost what i spent on this thing, i've had the cutter for like 6 months, and just dealt with it, i made a mistake buying a no name cutter.

hi all, thanks for the help, I got it working shortly after I posted by switching to another 45 degree blade, but now i just used the pen plotter attatchment, then put my blade back on, and its doing it again, don't know what to do, i know its not an offset problem, blade holder?

got my creation pcut, and when cutting letters or anything, it starts the cut from slightly inside the letter and cuts it fine, but left with soft of a nib. i've adjusted the blade offset from zero up to .30, which helped a bit, it completes the cut, but am still left with a triangle nib. adjusted blade depth, to where it didn't even cut through the vinyl completely and still did te same thing, cutter speed or force doesn't help either. there seems to be some lateral side to side play in the black part that the blade holder fits into, it it loose? sometimes it will cut from outside going into the letter, which is fine,--but when it cuts starting from inside its a problem which i pictured below help..., i'm cutting letters which are at least an inch tall

hey that's pretty cool, thanks for the input. So i guess all cutters pretty much cut the same, it's just higher end cutters like rolands have better warranties, contour cut, better software, and all the rest. i'm just starting out so i want the best value, hopefully the pcut's a good choice, or how about the cheaper one they make.

I'm new to vinyl cutting and want to get into it, i'm looking at the creation pcut 24", and want to start with cutting small stickers and some larger signs. my question is is how detailed can these things cut? like how small letters can it cut accurately in terms of millimetres, the smallest stickers i'll probably cut would be about 5" wide, but how small can the details be? are all cutters capable of cutting small details?
