Can I use the 12 x 24 cutting mat made for the Cameo machine, with my old Silhouette QuicKuts &amp; What's the diff between Silhouette mat &amp; Cameo mat?

Hi, I don't think the Cameo and the Silhouette are two different machines. I see only references to the Silhouette Cameo. The Silhouette program I have shows only a 12 x 12 mat but I believe you can cut roll vinyl with the machine. The program lets you scroll way past the mat. It goes to 35 inches. I have the fancier Studio Designer version which has side rulers. I see on Amazon there is a 12 by 24 mat available. I also have a Blackcat Cougar and it has a place to set mat size. The Silhouette mats are rather thin. My Blackcat mats are a lot thicker and more forgiving. My Silhouette now lives at our factory and my Blackcat is at my home. I haven't tried a Black cat mat in the Silhouette. I can't resist in telling you I found a way to redo the stick on the mats. I think the sticky on the Silhouette mat is waterbased so it can be cleaned off with soap and water. When it is clean, dry it off and spray a thin layer of Sprayway (name of manuf) No. 82 mist spray adhesive. Spray it outside or wear a mask. Make sure to let it dry as it can be gooey when wet. Amazon sells this spray stuff. I am absolutely thrilled to be able to keep my mats at perfect stickiness. I can easily remove buildup of the spray adhesive with paint thinner.

I have an older Fiskars model with a black bar but don't know what the model # is. The "Carl RM-12" cutting mats fit and work, but the "Fellowes Safecut Rotary Trimmer 12-Inch Replacement Cutting Mats (5411502)" also fit and stay in place better without being glued. They are both a little thicker than the original mats, but work nicely, and are both available on Amazon.

The cutting mat can be used for a 8 1/2" piece of paper, but the machine won't cut into the extra half inch.

Hi BB, you can cut them if you want to, but the mats were not meant to be cut. They are very flexible, so should be able to sit well in most standard pan sizes. How large is your pan?

I use this material with the Silouette cameo to do stencils of all kinds- letters, numbers, patterns etc. it works good but if using the same machine the blades don't seem to last long for cutting. Also they are reusable if you are careful. I put adhesive spray on the back of mine so after about 4 times they start to get a little rough looking but if you don't you should get many uses as long as you wash after use.

Absolutely, you can cut the mat to size. I ordered numerous of these mats and cut all but 2. Some I cut in about half, others I cut into 1/4s. I have used these mats to line numerous things I bake for which silicone mats are not used (lasagna, baked spaghetti, and any and every time I do not want a caramelized bottom to cookies, tarts, biscuits, turn-overs, calzone, etc. I would recommend cutting these mats using very sharp kitchen shears, or a new razor blade razor cutter or box cutter with a straight edge such as a metal yard stick. Best in to you. Bon Appetit!

You can cut this with regular scissors. Also with an exacto knife, paper cutter--I don't know what a silhouette machine is. You would need a good pair of scissors, like you would use for sewing.

I am not sure what you are talking about. I just know I got this nice roll that was easy to cut. They sell floor runners too so be careful to get the size you need, be it floor runner or drawer liner.

I'm pretty sure you can make it as large as your machine and your cutting mat will allow. On my smaller Cricut personal the largest setting is 5.5 inches, but on my new Cricut explore I can cut things as wide as big as the mat I'm using, the largest being 12"x24". The cartridge itself doesn't limit the size, just depends on your machine and cutting mat.

Yes. I cut it with my Stampin' Up! Sizzix machine and got nice cuts - but only with traditional dies. It won't work with thin items such as framelits and thinlits.

Hello. Portrait works up to 8" width and Cameo up to 12" width, and they have a different control panel. But the blades, accesories, inner mechanism and cutting software are the same. They both have the optical sanner -very usefull item-. So the principal difference is the width size.

Not sure, but I believe it was the die with 3 squares - 4-1/2" sq, 2-1/2" sq and 2-1/2 half sq triangles (2). Seam allowances are included in above sizes. Sorry I can't say for sure - I have numerous dies that get used on a regular basis, but this is a basic one that I believe came with the cutter. (You will love the Go)

hello,the mats are very flexible, I haven't cut mine, but I don't see why they couldn't be sized with scissors to fit your need:-)

We have had several people use our blank material with cutting machines, such as a Cameo. However, you will want to use our thinnest material, the 4 mil thickness. We sell this material by the foot or in 8.5 by 10.5 and 12.5 by 17 inch sheets. We now have 25 sheet packs available with Amazon Prime shipping options. You can find these 25 sheet packs by searching the following Item# AMY040812U25 and Item# AMY041218U25. Please contact us if you have any further questions. Thank you, The StencilEase Team

Absolutely! That's what I bought it for. Just use your vinyl setting. I cut an entire roll of this out with my Cameo to cover the blades of paper ice skates that I made 25 of my co-workers for Christmas. Cuts beautifully on the Cameo. I think I downloaded a picture of the ice skates I made. Check the reviews to take a look. Everything was cut on my Cameo.

Absolutely, you can easily use either. I think they only have 2 machines. I believe the cutting area is just smaller on the one.

She has the Cricut Expression, You should have specs with the machine to let you know if you can handle the size. I just looked up your machine and it does say 12 in x 24 in cutting capability. Sorry but I looked up the wrong machine. All I can find on your machine is 12 x 12. Sorry for misinformation.
