Adrienne Mignano replied to Adrienne Mignano's discussion Trouble with the Blades"Wow, thanks for all the suggestions.....I do have the type of mineral oil you are speaking about, so I'll try that. The strip looks good, no markings on it at all.....I will also run the circle test.....I have examined the blade and it…"
John H. replied to Adrienne Mignano's discussion Trouble with the Blades"I second Irv's WD-40 concern, WD has a lot of good uses but it's fish oil based, not something to use for small bearings or bushings in fine machinery. I use firearm mineral oil but sewing /embroidery machine oil is prob same thing if not…"
Butch replied to Adrienne Mignano's discussion Trouble with the Blades"Check your strip by creating a line of circles 1/4 inch or less the length of your availiable cutting width. Send job to machine check for any flaws in the circles, this will give an indication of bad areas in your cutting strip.
Other things you…"
Dennis Dunning replied to Adrienne Mignano's discussion Trouble with the Blades"Have you examined the blade under a magnifying glass to see if the tip has chipped off or the edge looks ragged? One thing I haven't heard discussed to far is the speed you are cutting at. If you cut slower, especially when you are…"
irving donaldson replied to Adrienne Mignano's discussion Trouble with the Blades"Not sure about the WD40 - I would use the type of oil for an embroidery machine. Light not oily. AS for your strip you look at the rubber strip and look to see if it has gourges. If so a replacement is needed."

Adrienne Mignano replied to Adrienne Mignano's discussion Trouble with the Blades"I did put the GX holder and blade into the VC and it cut fine. I don't believe it's the holder.

irving donaldson replied to Adrienne Mignano's discussion Trouble with the Blades"Could be a host of factors. Great to take the holder and use it on the GX - but did you do the GX holder on the VC. That will help point you to eliminate the holder. The next piece is to look at your cutting strip on the VC. A bad strip would take…"
Adrienne Mignano posted a discussionTrouble with the Blades
I am having trouble with the blades on the VersaCamm...I am going though a blade a week. I get great cuts for about a week and then it starts sticking in the corners of txt and not cutting all the way through. I took the whole blade mechanism off and put it on the GX 24 and it cut perfectly...put it back on the versacamm and it did not cut well at all. Any suggestions?? I am going through blades like crazy....See More
