Thank u so much for all your help i tried it and it worked ❤whats the normal settings on it i changed them up and dont recall tje settings tks love ..good day !
Wonderful tutorial! I have watched 30 of these and your the only person to give so much detail. Thank you soo much for doing this video. Your so smart and talented!
ur video helped me so much! found out one of my problems was i didnt lock the blade in so thats why it couldnt cut deep enough on regular bondpaper TT thanks so much!!
Thank You. The hard part for me, I used the machine about a month ago to cut tags with the same paper and it was a whiz. I like you have used their software for years and there machines a lot. I was about ready to throw it out. Thank you. Thank You
So true! Not enough Silhouette PORTRAIT information on this issue. Only the wrong ones. SO thank you for making this video. I hope they fix this. Too much stress and money for this issue
Soooo frustrated with our Portrait 3. It is truly a piece of GARBAGE and I have a VERY disappointed 14 year old daughter. Worst Christmas present EVER. 😢😢😢😢😢
I would definitely contact Silhouette to address whatever issues you’re having. They honestly don’t have the best customer service tho. But maybe get a refund on your machine and try out a Cricut. They come with their issues as well but in the very least, Cricut has an actual person you can speak too. Silhouette not so much.
OMG, you are awesome! I was so frustrated with this machine. Following your instructions my machine is working properly now to cut. Thank you SO MUCH!!!!
This video helped soooo much!!! My blade wasn't adjusting to the settings automatically for some reason. I've checked that the blade is sitting in the lock multiple times, and it's fine but it still wouldn't adjust. Finding this video has been my saving grace.
O M G THIS VIDEO SAVED ME!!! I haven't used my silhouette for a while (maybe even a year) and I was going crazy because it just wouldn't cut! Tried this and worked perfectly! thank you sooooo much!!!!
Hello. I know this might sound weird but double check that your mats are aligned correctly. I did another video addressing this because it kept being suggested to me and even tho it wasn’t the issue for me, it does help others. If that doesn’t work, I would suggest one of two things. 1. get a new blade and see if the one you have is possibly faulty (that ended up being my issue) or 2. contact Silhouette. It’s a shame so many are still running into this same issue. I hope your issue has been resolved by now but if not, fingers crossed one of those suggestions helps. 💐
I'm so glad I watched your video. Got a good deal on the Portrait 3 from Amazon, so that's what I got for Christmas. I couldn't get the blade to cut properly until I watched this. I'm so surprised that Silhouette's materials don't cover this!
Glad I could help. I agree, it should be covered. Especially considering how many are still having the same issue. I hope you have a happy and prosperous New Year! 💐
Great video even after 2 years! I just got the silhouette portrait 4 and nothing I’ve done seems to work. Followed your steps and I got some cut but not deep enough. Do I need to change blades? I’m confused at this point.
Glad it helped! Ok so triple check that the mat is lining up correctly with the lines on the machine, it’s possible you may need a new blade that’s what ended up being my issue, a faulty blade. Kinda sad this video is still relevant for the same issue. I only suggested the checking that your mat is lining up correctly because it was suggested to me and while that wasn’t the issue for me, others stated it helped them. I hope this helps. 💐
Hi, i lost all of my feet in a fire, but thank god i still have my machine, i would like to know where i could buy the feet for my machine, i have all of these wonderful things i could do with it but i need the feet!
Hello. I’m so sorry to hear that. I’m glad your ok! That had to be scary. So as far as the feet for the machine goes. You can always look up universal feet for the sewing machine. I would also suggest looking up the actual machine and research replacement parts. I’m sure there are Brother dealers who may have options. If I were to need to replace mine, those are the steps I would take in order to replace them. I don’t have this machine anymore but I do have a Brother sewing machine. So def make sure the options you choose are for your machine model or universal which should include Brother models. I hope that helps. God Bless. 💐
Hello. It depends on your usage. If you notice your blade seems to be cutting things incorrectly, meaning maybe your cuts aren’t as sharp, it could mean the dull is blade. So you would need to replace it at that point. Personally I haven’t had to replace any of my blades. Keep in mind, my machines aren’t heavily used. It all comes down to the user and usage. I’m sure there are third party blades but again, I personally haven’t used any to be able to recommend. I hope that helps.
Thank you so much for this video. Followed to the letter and achieved a perfect cut. I was beginning to think I shouldn't have bought the machine. You saved the day.
Hi beautiful! No, I’m not doing nails anymore at least not for clients etc. I started a different channel and will be posting there. I’m still trying to decide what I really want to do with this channel. Thanks for all the support over the years. Hope all is well with you. Hugs! 💐
Thank u so much for this video. I tried some toothpaste on some old jewelry that was tarnished and it worked! I'm so upset because I have thrown away so much jewelry over the years. I wish I had found your video years ago 😢.
Can you help me? I was using go silhouette and it told me to download the update After the update, the device can no longer be touched and none of the buttons respond What do I do ??? Here is a video of the problem I am facing drive.google.com/file/d/1o9FE5rP45Q8eVBomAuGVU1XgUIWJ9FMC/view?usp=drivesdk ....
Hi hun. I would contact Silhouette. I haven’t had that issue and if I did, I would reach out to them. I don’t want to steer you in the wrong direction. Contacting Silhouette might be your best suggestion. They recently posted new machines, so I’m wondering if software updates has something to do with the issue. But I don’t know that for sure.
Hi hun. I don’t necessarily know how to pin point the direct issue. My suggestions would be to check your settings, go to the website and see what suggestions they have for cutting glitter htv. Definitely contact Silhouette directly, it’s their machine and can guide you through any and all steps. If your blade is cutting other materials I would think the blade is fine but possibly the blade force needs to be adjusted? Hope that helps.
Aw I’m sorry luv. Have you seen the other versions of it? I know it’s not the same as getting the print you want. I’ve noticed they started making this bag in more color patterns. 💐
Thank you for the video however I discovered that I was loading my mat on the very far left instead of where I was supposed to line the mat. I think that's what was inhibiting my auto blade from setting correctly. The minute I loaded my mat correctly it cut perfect hope that helps someone else remember there are various lines when we are aligning ormat so you have to align your mat on the correct line. Good luck everyone.
Amazing!!! I bought my Silouhette today and spent the past hour yelling at it and getting angry because I could not even cut vinyl... tried it your way and BOOM! Thank you!!
Glad I could help! I can understand the frustration. I have no clue why Silhouette has yet to address this. I hope you have a great rest of your day or night.
