The Silhouette Digital Craft Cutter gives you instant access to your entire digital design collection, the power to transform designs anywhere from 1/4 inch to 8 inches tall and will allow you to cut any TrueType font on your computer—all without any cartridges or CDs to lose, damage or store!

Craft enthusiasts will love this digital cutter–it’s the perfect tool for scrapbook and school projects, making cards and invitations, paper crafting, home decor, and more. Use it to cut from a variety of materials including pattered paper, iron-on transfer paper, vinyl, magnetic paper, cardstock, wood paper, vellum, and sticker paper.

By connecting the cutter to your computer, you can receive instant access to your entire digital design collection, transform designs anywhere from 1/4 inch to 8 inches tall, or cut any TrueType font on your computer. Best of all, it does not require any cartridges or CDs that can end up lost or damaged.

The cutter comes pre-loaded with 50 shapes, and the Silhouette software makes it easy to log onto your account at any time and download more shapes at your convenience. The digital craft cutter measures 6 by 16 by 4-1/4 inches tall or 8-1/4 inches tall with the lid open. Though it’s only 16 inches wide, it does require 18 inches of desk space to make room for the plugged-in USB and power cords.

It will also need 12 inches of clearance in front and back to accommodate the cutting mat as it feeds through the Silhouette when cutting. Users will also need access to a PC with Windows 2000 or XP operating system and an Internet connection.

Pros:

  • Yes it really works, with paper and cardstock!
  • You can also use programs like corel-draw to design your cuttings
  • It cuts quickly and very accurately
  • it comes with a holder for pens, so you can even let it draw with a normal inkpen
  • it is very cool to watch

Cons:

  • I don’t really like the supplied software
  • I don’t know how long the knife and the adhesive mat lasts, but they are expensive
