Thank you! For the plain card stock in the video, I used 500 speed and 16 power for the score and 250 speed with 36 power to cut. There is a bit of alchemy to settings. It usually requires some testing to get the right settings for any specific stock and design. I generally start at full speed, systematically trying different power levels until I find what consistently cuts through. I adjust speed down if full power isn’t enough (rare with paper) or, in when there are special considerations. In this case, for instance, I slow down to 250 speed because it produces more reliable results on fine details and curves. It will also cut through at 500 / 74. That works great for the long straight lines of the card outline. For the curves of the Os and some of the short cuts, though, it ends up not cutting through consistently unless I really over-power the cut, which damages the hold-down mat.

Awesome video! Can I ask what setting you use for the cut and score in GF UI.
Thank you!
