Well I received my cameo the other day got about 5-6 pages cut and blade is already dull. At $12 a piece this is definitely not worth it. I will probably be selling it! Any one interested?

What do you have your blade depth set at? I have used mine for over 30 sheets and no problems yet.

I had it set on 2. Also I could not get it to work with pepakura. Had to export and use the cameo studio. The pepakura viewer failed to find registration marks. When I went ahead with the cut it was not in the printed area. It was off. I was using blue cardstock. Any advice is more than appreciated.

I was thinking to get one of that too... is that really not durable?

I have been getting the studio software to work much better than pepakura. Just cant get it to print the edge numbers. Going to order a new blade again and see how long it will last.

There is a lot of help in the tutorials here on the RPF. It can be tricky to get things set up. Use regular paper until you have all the registration marks and edge numbers working properly, it's a lot less expensive that way.
