The thinner the stuff you're cutting, the easier it is. Press hard and cut decisively. And I guess, practice?

Does this really work? We have one at home and I was unable to use it with any sort of skill and my shapes just looked ugly. Could it be the blade is dull? I know it's a silly question, but I ended up using scissors (for a completely unrelated project), but would like to be able to use the Xacto pen when possible. Are there any secrets?Kellyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16617844410279287777noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7556794318856646559.post-682629118926136442008-01-26T09:02:00.000-06:002008-01-26T09:02:00.000-06:00BeautifulI find herehttp://www.lasmanualidades.com...Beautiful<BR/>I find here<BR/>http://www.lasmanualidades.com/2007/11/20/candelaro-muy-sencillo/Estercityhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06655201271442373128noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7556794318856646559.post-86327946284081673002007-09-22T14:59:00.000-05:002007-09-22T14:59:00.000-05:00I will have to get my hands on some of this wondro...I will have to get my hands on some of this wondrous and magical paper!
