I'm looking for a Fabric Shaver to use on a blanket I'm crocheting, will this shaver damage my blanket?

Did you happen to get one Tiger Lady? I am looking for one for crochet pants wondering if this will do the trick?

I think it would be fine as long as you follow the instructions and keep the blanket flat. Start with level 3 and see if you need more. My best results have been on level 2 so far. Still loving it.

It didn't damage my Marino wool sweaters, which are quite delicate. But for a blanket is get a larger shaver. They make shavers for blankets and larger items.

I would recommend giving it a try. Try it on a small area in the corner at first and set it to the highest setting. I cannot guarantee it won't damage your blanket, but if you're careful, I would think not.

I would say blanket it. But I don't advise getting it. It had it aweek and the trimming started coming off.

I'm sorry, but I have no idea. I've used this style of Remington shaver for several years and never had a problem like that.

I don't use it on the jewels, just the rest of the body, I use a 5 blade disposable razor instead for them. Area around is performed w/ the shaver though. If you are nicking yourself a lot it might be time to buy new foil blades.

On the felt that I used yes! I tried it on some netting and it does well. To cut fabric, the only thing I can see that would hinder it is if you do not have the fabric down in a manner not to allow the blade to move well. I have made a quilt using the Disappearing Nine Patch. I know after I sew the nine patch back together for second or third or fourth cuts, The problem is the build up the layers of fabric and thread at the seams. That is why, I say with confidence, as long as you have your fabric down correctly on a good cutting board there should be no problem. I have had no problems.

Ive had no problems. I have to admit it took me getting used to using a top load razor compared to the butterfly opening. I do not tighten my razor to th4 max I just make it snug.

I have used this for years and not had any problems. Are you using a sufficient quantity of shavings? Do you have a bed of combustible material under the shavings? Have you tried cotton balls saturated with Vaseline? Distance between the striker and the shavings should be at about 3".Updated: I shaved off some from the new one that I just opened. It would not even start with a lighter. It seems their quality has gone down to rock bottom. This is NOT what they used to be.I will be using a different brand from here on in. POOR

Gee, I haven't seen it on the market. Besides, the one with a longer handle comes from a different brand and has a butterfly opening at the top, so it does not comes apart when replacing a shaving blade. Yeah, it would be nice if one could have a choice of different handle sizes! Hope this was the answer you were looking for.

The question is not clear to me as I have no pictures to look at. But the shaver I bought was a great big disappointment to me. It is totally worthless.. will not work at all and hasn't after using two times. The only reason I did not return it... all papers and etc. had been thrown away.

I have not tried fleece with the cutter my guess is it will have alot of fuzz which you will want to clean often off the blade(depending on the type of fleece) sorry I couldn't help ya.

I use another trimmer for edges but I don't see why it wouldn't create a great edge. Only concern with edge trimming is that the blade is very wide, not ideal for curves/bends in the hair line. Hope that was helpful.

Not that good Michael. It is really design to remove under-coat and it's the best at that. What we have found with cockle burs and bad tangles is to use a letter opener. Just one of the standard plastic ones where the razor blade is hidden up inside to prevent accident. Just slide it through the hair between the tangle and the skin and bingo! You can pick'em up everywhere as most of them have ad messages on them. Works like a charm and doesn't leave the coat looking hacked up. Good luck.JFS

If you use the fine grater, it will produce a small "peel" like shaving. The course grater will produce a thicker shaving. I suggest using a potato peeler instead

I had other bad experiences with this iron. Steam left big water spots on silk ruining a lovely scarf After using it once I gave it away. Didn't use it long enough to have trouble with the filaments. Sorry. Marci

It's primary purpose is to clean synthetic jackets and other garments, so I don't really think it's appropriate for horse blankets. If its made out of a material such as wool and you want to use a "gentle" but effective cleaning agent I would recommend Woolite.

I haven't used mine for anything but dry yarn or blankets. Sorry I can't be of help for your question.
