transporter 0 Posted January 13, 2011 Hi..I hope somebody can please give me some advise!! I`ve just purchased a roll of sand blast material Grafititack SBP (350 microns) from www.Grafityp.com I want to use it for reusable stencils.. I`m basically having trouble cutting completely through it. It is`t a clean cut through, I can peel the lettering away from the material but it`s fiddily!! because I hav`nt been able to completely cut through..so I end up kind of ripping the remainder of the letter out, and it`s taking three times as long to weed out, compared to other thinner stencil material I`ve used. I`ve changed the Roland setting to: max 250gf force / slowed it down to 15cm/s & changed the offset to 0.400mm .. also I`ve adjusted the blade in the holder by turning approx three extra whole turns (additional 0.3mm.) I`m worried about fully unwinding the blade, in case I do some damage!!?? Also the blade has been replaced from it`s standard 45`blade to a 60` blade. The 60` blade was a cheap copy!!

jfought 120 Posted January 13, 2011 search the forum for Clean Cut Blades. the price you paid for 5 is the same price you will pay for one great blade. i have bought some of the knock off blades and they SUCK. let me tell you. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

steve worcester 0 Posted February 2, 2011 If you can get this to work, please let us know. From the tests I have done, you either can't do it in one pass because there isn't enough down force, or the material is just too thick Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
