I just received my new Superman and Batman carts and had to have a wee go. I cut Superman #5 at 4" but still found some of the finer details were lost and the paper was torn. Any help or advice would be most welcome here.  EdnaTaylor attached the following image(s):

wow! that is great! the only suggestions I've heard that really help are to lower the pressure a bit and then cut twice.. it helps with the more intricate cuts!

Thank you so much. I'll give it a go. I was putting Woody #5 together for my grandson the other day and truly I thought by the end of it that 'life's too short.'  It would definitely help if the wee bits didn't rip up every time. I cut Woody at 6 1/2" to try and avoid that happening but no good - they still ripped up, so every suggestion is valuable - thanks.

I find it also helps to turn the speed to slow as possible.

Lovely card. I recently bought this cart and its on its way to me and I understand for the small bits it needs to be slow, with a good sticky mat and a nice sharp cutting blade. I will see how I get on and come back and report.
Thanks for sharing
