I have heard some negative talk about how our new Magnetic Plate bends easily.
I own a Gemini electronic cutting machine and the magnetic mat for that stretches unbelievably. So I watched a hack by Jennifer McGuire where she taped the magnetic plate between the plates to stop that from happening.
It worked great, so I thought I would try the same for our magnetic plate.
WOW after 75 runs through the Stampin' Cut & Emboss yesterday it is still flat. The only issue is my tape is a bit torn, but that can be easily replaced. I know this means that you need two base platforms and two die cut platforms, but this is a game changer for me. This magnetic plate cuts like butter the first time through, it's amazing.
I hope this tip is helpful for you.
EDITED TO ADD - if you do this, you will not be able to send your magnetic plate back to SU as it will void warranty. This is not a SU endorsed practice, try it at your own risk! I take no responsibility if it damages your plates and/or machine or anything else!
If you have any questions at all, please don't hesitate to contact me or comment below.
Thanks for dropping by.
Have a great day.
Cheers,
