I'm so excited to share what I just discovered in our Facebook Silhouette users group-Brazil Silhoueteiras e Cia-BR (https://www.facebook.com/groups/368738113201922/). The video was posted by my FB friend Adines Baratieri who found it on her German Silhouette users group.Thank you so much, Adines
The video demonstrates how easy it is to open the Silhouette ratchet blade to remove debris/fibers/lint/dirt that get stuck inside. The lady who created the video, Natalia, (from Germany) is a genius. The video is in German but anyone can easily understand it as she did an excellent job in showing the step by step instructions. Finally, the mystery on how to open this blade holder has been unlocked. Thank you so much, Natalia.
I strongly suggest using an old dull Silhouette ratchet blade in trying this initially until you get comfortable and used to it.
It will be neat if someone can discover how to replace the blade. I'm inclined to believe that the blade used for the ratchet blade is the same blade used for the CB09/aluminum blade holder which cost only about $2.80 each. I did a comparison and it looks like the 45 degrees blade.
It is so amazing how we all get connected coming from the different parts of the world in sharing our passion for our beloved Silhouette Cameo (and Silhouette SD).
BTW, I started following Natalia's blog and wrote her to ask if she can possibly redo the video in English. Let's see what her response will be.

Gayle,
ReplyDeleteI bought my Silhouette Cameo last year and they were offering the unlimited for $19.99. I signed up for a year and will expire in December 2012. I have orig. Cricut, Expression, E2, Imagine and Gypsy but since I got my Silhouette Cameo, I barely use any of my Cricuts.
Thank you Gayle!
ReplyDeleteCertainly the video in English will make it much easier for all of us!
