I’m enjoying experimenting with printer paper while I learn to use my GF because it is cheap and I have a ton of it. After 18 months of drawing design files to use in my GF, I can finally test them out!
Here are a couple I made tonight. The zebra is inverted (black/white) because I designed it to be cut from black paper with a white backing. The window is from the Orleans cathedral in Orleans, France. These designs will eventually be multi-layered multi-colored pieces made from art paper.
I didn’t, it was just luck (a couple spots didn’t cut all the way through because a little scrap was in the way). I’m going to make a sticky mat (like @Jules describes) as soon as I decide to make it from a flat piece of wood, acrylic, or maybe a large glazed tile.
Yes, like wesleyjames said it it speed/power/thickness. Although I found that 500 speed is way too fast for paper. Now I cut all my paper projects at 200 speed and adjust the power until it gives a clean cut through whichever paper I am using.
Unfortunately I am quite new with the system
and please if you tell me how and where to find these elements : speed/power/thickness for to make the respective variations.
