well, so to speak, I finally unpacked my Silhouette Portrait 3, downloaded and registered the device, searched for and watched several tutorials, but... to start with something simple, I would have decided to create my own masks for the spiral on the spinner and the individual number for the Yak-3 Special Hobby 1/32. I tried scanning the decal sheet and photographing it. I managed to import both files into the dedicated program, but apparently I can't detect the contours of the scanned copy. better with the one photographed, highlighting the contrasts. scanned one and .jpg I managed by trial and error to isolate the spiral and arrive at this point now I would like to join the main points of the curves, eliminating what is unnecessary and disturbing, but I can't find the right command (or sequence of commands). even getting just this far was quite frustrating, the tutorials I found didn't enlighten me, and the site manual doesn't go into detail, I think. Do you kindly have any more detailed tutorials or manuals? TIA, cheers, Paolo

Hi Mike, Yes it’s me, Phil Jones from IPMS Avon. 🙂 Happy to see a familiar name here 🙂 Right, my first potentially daft question: is there a knack to peeling the Oramask back off the cutting mat without peeling the mask from its own backing in spots as you go?
