Karimb Posted July 19, 2020 Share Posted July 19, 2020 Good morning to all! Happy to be here and happy to finally see the idea of an online repository of user made masks has finally seen the light. I use a cameo 2 for plotting and the silhouette designer business edition along with adobe illustrator for the design phase of the masks. I look forward to to sharing my work here for others to be able to use them too! also happy to see here some familiar faces from other forums!

Miracle Paint Masks Posted July 19, 2020 Share Posted July 19, 2020 I'm looking to see if the hobby cutters can be of use to me. More for cutting other mediums than masks but there are a few of the parameters that I have not been able to get my head around. So I may be asking some inane questions to try and work them out for myself? Standby🙄 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I often do parts with the cutter so i can replicate them. It’s quite useful. Until the formlabs3 lands at least 😂 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Miracle Paint Masks Posted July 19, 2020 Share Posted July 19, 2020 What I am trying fathom out is how the "offset" (the angle of the knife) is put into the hobby machines. I use 45% knives and the Offset is 0.43mm. That is set, as my knives are precision ground. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Your plotter is definitely more advanced and your knives of much better quality. It took me trial and error to figure out the thickness limit of styrene etc Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
