User questions & answers

Question:	Does the scanncut dx sd125 accept svg files
Answer:	I use acrylic blocks for these stamps so don't know if they can be mounted on wood blocks or not. They were made to be used onthe acrylic blocks. I wouldn't want to ruin them by mounting them on wood.
Question:	Will not power on. Anyone know why? 2and one to do this
Answer:	The template in the set is a thin sheet of plastic with designs cut out of it. It is a pattern for you to use. You place it on the surface you are working on and use paints, markers, colored pencils, etc.
Question:	Is it normal for the auto blade to score shallow cut marks into my mat
Answer:	Great question! You have to rub it so the adhesive sticks nicely to the back of the paper - and therefore, makes a better sticker! Be sure to always follow this important step! Hope this helps!
Question:	Is it normal that the mat that came with the machine losses adhesive quality after a two days
Answer:	You gotta be more specific. WHAT got stuck?

User questions & answers

Question:	can i use my own freehand drawings
Answer:	It is a "shim" that's necessary for cutting wafer thins but it comes with the Vagabond when you buy it. Good youtubes to watch are put out by Scrapbooking made Simple. Love my vagabond 2!
Question:	Does anyone know what the e (sdx125e ) means? i have googled with no luck what it stands for
Answer:	I have had no trouble with many brands of thin, intricate dies. All of the brands may have issues with cutting completely, but it's the dies that are the issue, not the Vagabond. Go to YouTube to get suggestions for solving this issue...placing dies closer go the edges, using additional paper or scotch tape shims, etc. I bought the Vagabond 2 because my original Vagabond, nearly 10 years old, gave up the ghost after thousands of cuts. I love my Vagabond and would recommend it highly.
Question:	Is it compatible with OS (iMac
Answer:	Yes...it is quieter and less likely to jam. My old Vagabond got knocked on the floor by my cat and just quit working. The improvements are significant. but I wouldn't replace a working Vagabond with this one...As long as your machine works, use it.
Question:	What are the 3 extra pattern collections in the 125E edition machine
Answer:	Mine came with the platform, two clear cutting plates and the thin adapter for using the thin dies. I purchased the longer cutting plates separately.

User questions & answers

Question:	Can i use with a window based computer or does it have to be a MAC
Answer:	We just got out of a Cricut class tonight, 10/14/2019) at a local Michaels. We (my wife and I) both downloaded the DesignSpace software in class from the Cricut website to our Windows 10 laptops and after downloading a small Windows add-in, were able to launch DesignSpace, create and cut projects successfully from out laptops. We also had out Apple iPads and downloaded the Apple Store DesignSpace app and had no problem using them to design and cut. Can’t speak about the Mac though...
Question:	I am looking to get my first Cricut machine. Will the faster speed matter or should I save some money and get the previous version to learn on
Answer:	The only difference between the air1 and air2 is the speed of the cut and the color options for the machines. I have the air2 and I honestly haven't even tried the faster cutting option because I've been cutting really delicate things and I was afraid that it would rip the material at a faster speed. I guess this question depends on how much you would use it and for what. I don't, by any means, think the air1 is "slow".
Question:	I want a machine to cut out my own designs from photoshop/illustrator, I'm not interested in any of the library images etc. Can this do this, well
Answer:	Through personal experience, the Cricut Design Space software let’s you upload svg files, but not ai or eps. The best advice for cutting images from Illustrator is to use a USCutter instead, it uses a software called Sure Cuts A Lot and works with alot of file types (ai, eps, svg)

Question:	any die can be used
Answer:	Yes, as long as it is small/narrow enough to fit thru the opening. Thinlits or framelits work fine. You could not fit a platform ( thick ) die....I do not think.
Question:	I have a hard time shimming my original sidekick. Is this new one improved that detail or do you still find yourself adding additional shimming
Answer:	The updated version has thicker acrylic cutting plates to accommodate wafer thin dies. No adapter nor thick shimming is needed.
Question:	What's the difference between the special edition and the other
Answer:	I don’t see any difference - except the price! I have the white/grey option and it came with the cutting plates, embossing plate and dies and embossing folders. I am very happy with it. I have a regular size big shot but so many of my dies are small and I can use this right at my crafting table.
Question:	Wondering if you ended up buying the larger size Sizzix? The dies need the be very small for this machine
Answer:	I already have the full size Big Shot. Just bought this for smaller dies and does not take up as much room on my work space.

Product description

Silhouette Cameo 4

• The silhouette Cameo 4 is the evolution in desktop cutting. The sleek Backlit touch panel lets you load, unload, and pause your projects in style. Conveniently stored in the machine's compact pull-out drawer is a new built in roll feeder for quickly cutting vinyl and heat transfer material directly from a roll. On the back of the Cameo 4 You will find a built in cross cutter allowing for a clean straight edge cut on your vinyl roll for your next project.
• The Cameo unique dual carriage allows for tool Type detection. The machine's ultra-smart system uses tool sensor technology that detects what tool you are using which then triggers the silhouette Studio software to adjust cut settings automatically.
• The Cameo 4 stands apart from previous models with the new dual motor system, which allows you to cut in two distinct ways. Carriage one provides the Cameo 4 with unparalleled speed. It is operated from a solenoid motor that gives makers smooth and intricate cuts. Cameo 4 can cut or sketch up to 3x faster than previous models without sacrificing accuracy. Carriage two is operated by an entirely different style of motor that allows for unprecedented power.
• The Cameo 4 carriage 2 boasts additional cutting force! With the increased downforce of the Cameo 4, we now offer a new rotary and Kraft blade (Sold separately) that have been specifically designed to operate with the Cameo smart tangential technology. With smart tangential technology the Cameo 4 cuts thicker material without sacrificing quality with each cut. The Cameo 4 offers true mat-less cutting which allows cutting cardstock, paper, and other materials without using a mat.
• The autoblade has been reconfigured especially for the Cameo 4. This second generation autoblade will have a single-tap reset which will reduce the time needed for the Cameo 4 to automatically adjust the blade setting for your project.

User questions & answers

Question:	Can this cut into balsa wood and Mat boards? What blade would I need to use
Answer:	It can only cut 3mm thick materials., so it would have to be very thin balsa wood and mat boards. These materials should be cut using the Kraft blade.
Question:	can i use my own 2mm thick felt? 2) uplaod my own designs? 3) will this require a monthly subscription? 4) is cutting bade i'd need available now
Answer:	Hi Patricia, Here are the answers to each of your questions. (1) The Cameo 4 can cut up to 3mm thick, so your 2mm thick felt should be cut without any problems. (2) There are several file types that Silhouette Studio can import. If you have the basic version of Studio you can import STUDIO/STUDIO3 files, GSD/GST and DXF files. The software can also import image file types (JPG, PNG, BMP, GIF and TIF Files) and then trace the image using an auto-trade function to create cut lines. Upgraded version of Studio software can import additional file types. Silhouette Studio Designer edition can import SVG and PDF files. Silhouette Studio Plus can import embroidery file types, such as PES, DST, EXP, JEF, and XXX files. Our Studio Business Edition add the ability to open Adobe Illustrator and CorelDRAW native files, AI, EPS and CDR. (3) No monthly subscription is required to use and operate the Cameo 4. In the Silhouette Design store you can subscribe to a monthly subscription, we offer many subscription options that best suits your needs. If you choose to not renew the subscription, you will still have access to the designs you previously downloaded. The free 1-month Subscription comes with the purchase of the Cameo 4. Any designs or fonts downloaded during that time are yours to use forever. (4) Yes the blade you would need is available. We would recommend the Rotary blade for cutting felt. Retailers are just receiving them now. We hope you enjoy your new Cameo 4. If you have any additional questions please let us know. The Silhouette Team
Question:	How does this compare to Cricut Maker
Answer:	There are many differences from the Silhouette Cameo 4 that set it apart from other cutting machines on the market. The biggest difference is the power of the Silhouette Studio software. The software is available 24/7 on your computer. It is very easy to use yet very powerful! The basic version comes free with your Cameo 4. The Cameo 4 now comes with a built in roll feeder, which allows you to cut rolled material such a vinyl and heat transfer material. The Cameo can accommodate material 12 inches wide and 10 feet in length. The Cameo, unlike other machines, can cut paperbacked materials without the use of a cutting mat. There is also a built in cross cutter that allows for cutting your rolled materials with a straight edge. The new Cameo 4 now boasts the ability to accommodate the new Silhouette Rotary blade and Kraft blade. With the increased downforce available, the rotary blade and Kraft blade can cut materials that were not previously available to cut with a Cameo cutter. The Rotary Blade for Cameo 4 provides an alternate method of cutting by having the blade roll across your material. This enables you to cut a variety of specialty material—including cotton fabrics, leather, felt, wool, and more—without a special stabilizer backing. The 3mm Kraft Blade for the Cameo 4 allows you to cut specialty craft materials, such as acetate, craft foam, burlap, and leather. The 3 mm depth is designed specifically to take advantage of the increased clearance the Cameo 4 has to cut even thicker materials. Please note the Kraft Blade and the Rotary Blade are sold separately. With the new carriage the Cameo is now on the same level as the Maker. The Cameo 4 is also cheaper by $100 in comparison. The Cameo 4 has a clearance of 3mm, which allows for thicker materials to be cut. The Cameo 4 also has an industry first of cutting many materials without a cutting mat this new feature allows for cutting paper, card stock and other materials without a cutting mat. Overall the Cameo 4 has set the bar higher than any other cutting machine on the market!

Answer:	Contains: Silhouette CAMEO® 4 Power cable & USB cable 12-inch Cutting Mat AutoBlade Silhouette Studio® software (download) 100 exclusive designs (download) 1-month Silhouette Design Store subscription (available with tool registration)

Have Corel Draw or Adobe Illustrator? For the lost price we have you covered with a Plug-in that allows you to design and cut directly from these programs using Silhouette Connect.

User questions & answers

Question:	Can you customize your own style
Answer:	Not sure what you mean. It’s a manual machine
Question:	Can you emboss leather with this? Under 6oz. Leather
Answer:	Sizzix sells thin, small sheets of leather in various colors. https://smile.amazon.com/Sizzix-660606-Leather-Metallic-Cowhide/dp/B01FV62OCY/ref=sr_1_4?s=arts-crafts&ie=UTF8&qid=1536519420&sr=1-4&keywords=sizzix+leather
Question:	Bummer, I bought the machine, but It didn't came with the embossing folders, that are in the picture
Answer:	It’s just the gray folder thing that comes with it and the machine ... if it didn’t arrive I would think you could send it back for a new one...
Question:	Can I use die cuts with this machine
Answer:	Hello Eileen, I have tried but I personally wouldn't recommend it.. because the dies are thin, you need to make the plates thicker and when I tried it I ended up slightly damaging the machine, not enough so I can't use it to embosse, but enough to not try die cutting again.. hope this helps you. 

• 50 exclusive digital designs

User questions & answers

Question:	How does it match up with the print outs on my paper to accurately cut out what is printed? Or is that not something it can do
Answer:	There are two ways that you can "print and cut". One is by using a special new mat called the PixScan that is available for it, and an app that goes with it on your phone. With that you can cut around anything...it doesn't have to be something you printed from the Silhouette software. It can be a stamped image, or handwriting, or whatever. The other way is by creating the file in Silhouette's Design Studio software and then adding registration marks to your document before printing it. The machine reads these to orient itself on the paper when you feed the paper into the Portrait to cut.
Question:	Can you use 8 1/2" paper even if it only cuts 8" or would you need to trim your paper to
Answer:	I have put 8 1/2 by 11 paper on the mat. You just cannot see all the numbers on the side but you do not have to cut it to 8 inches. Hope this helps. I absolutely love my Silhouette and I still do not even know how to use have of the items yet.
Question:	Will the software that comes with this print .ai files? Is there other software that will print out designs for this printer
Answer:	Not the software that comes with it. However you can buy Silhouette Connect software for $40 which allows you to cut directly in Adobe Illustrator. Would highly recommend using that program if you know Illustrator.
Question:	What will the Cameo do that the Portrait will not do
Answer:	I had purchased the Portrait, but found I was limited on what I could create since it's width is just 8 inches wide. Most of the paper or vinyl I wanted to use with the Portrait were at least 8 1/2 inches wide. So I bought the Cameo and I'm very happy with it. Other than the width limitation, they both operate the same way.
