I am pretty comfy cutting everything w/my graphptech, except the thicker glitter like Hot Fix glitter. I use the 60 degree blade, adjust the downforce, but no mater what I do, it is so difficult to weed. Blade isn't very old (1 month and I don't cut every single day) It never seems to cut smooth. I have spoken with graphtch and Hot Fix. any suggestions> Debbie
