My blades from AliExpress finally showed up today. However they are 2mm diameter and it seems our blade holder takes 2.5mm diameter blades (which I can’t even find on AliExpress).
I had better luck using GreatCut 3 instead of VectorCut software. GreatCut can set more parameters such as pressure, and can test-run the cutter (works just like Run Box on the laser cutter).
Since my blade was the wrong diameter, it had significant slop. It cut great but the lines were all a bit imprecise.
As usual, I’ve updated the wiki with some more notes in the hopes that it makes it a bit easier for the next person.
Above: My 2mm blade on top, and the dull 2.5mm blade that was in the cutter on the bottom.
