    I know this after the release by a long shot. However, you are so clear in your instructions. I am subscribed to your DIY CHANNEL AND HAVE BEEN FOR QUITE A WHILE.

      I was in your boat about 6 yrs ago when I got my cameo. There was definately a learning curve. I was 75 then and finally learned how to use from watching what seemed like hundreds of CZcams videos. There is also Silhouette School which has many tuts. Took me several months to learn, but then again, I'm old woman$\

I need to cut material that is 1 to 2 millimeter thick (.03 to .07 in). It needs to be plastic, silicone or rubber type material. Could you please recommend a material and cut settings that would fit this purpose? Thank you! I'm loving your videos!

    I've used V3 of Cameo for about 6 years and am familiar with it. Now my sight is extremely bad and have been afraid to get V4 because I might not be able to learn where the new setting are. I would like to see a tutorial on the new version. Maybe I can see if I can follow it well enough to change. You are the best. By the way, I'm 80 yrs old and should probably stop trying to use the cameo at all...but I just can't bring myself to give it up.
