Of course this will work with all the Silhouette machines but I was using my new Cameo 4 to celebrate the face that the new Chomas Creations tools for the Cameo 4 are now shipping! You can order here... http://amychomas.com/index.php?main_page=index&cPath=1_18
I used the Chomas Creations engraving tip in the Cameo 4 to make these cuff bracelets from ImpressArts. I used a pressure of 33, a speed of 10 and a multicut of 2. I then darkened in the top bracelet with Sharpie and rubbed the excess off with rubbing alcohol.

I found a bottle opener on etsy that was under 3 mm so I gave it a go for engraving in my Cameo 4 with the Chomas Creations precision tip. It was anodized aluminum and did take multiple passes to get through. I used a pressure of 33 and speed of 3. I think it turned out cute and plan on trying on more!
I did use double sided adhesive to secure it to the mat. I just added a video to the Chomas Creations YouTube channel to help see how I did it.

Cuff bracelets with the Chomas Creations precision tip in the Cameo 4

Playing around today with some copper blanks I got on etsy. They are the cuff bracelets so they are flat when they go into your machine and you bend them when they come out.  
I made sure to use double sided adhesive to stick them to my mat then engraved on them with the Chomas Creations precision tip.  This was in the Cameo 4 but there are also engraving tips for the entire line of Silhouette machines.   The design was from the Silhouette store. After I colored in the engraved design with Sharpie and used rubbing alcohol to get the extra off.  
I used a pressure of 30, speed of 3 and multi cut of 4.

Labels with the Chomas Creations adjustable marker holder

Organizing the pantry today and decided to make some labels for my containers using a fine point Sharpie in the Chomas Creations adjustable marker holder in the Cameo 4 to draw on vinyl from 651 Vinyl.
I drew the design first and then cut around the design for this look.
Make sure you slow the speed to 3 and lower the pressure to 1 when doing this as you can crush the tip of the Sharpie.

Acrylic coasters with the Chomas Creations precision tip for the Brother Scan N Cut

I thought these mandala designs would make cool coasters! I engraved on the acrylic coasters from Craft Chameleon with the Chomas Creations precision tip. The feet come with them as well.

I set the design to draw in the software, added the coaster to my mat (yes it will work in all machines, you just have to make sure to get the right thickness of acrylic for your machine), then set the design to draw, speed of 5 pressure of 9. I did do it on the opposite side of the acrylic so if you are flipping text over make sure to flip it in the software.

Silhouette Cameo 4 adjustable pen holder

The Cameo 4 adjustable pen holder is coming soon to the Chomas Creations store!  It adjusts to center most gel pens (the ones with the squishy grips won't fit you will need the adjustalble marker holder).  I got these Gelly Roll gel pens at either Michaels, Joanns or Hobby Lobby and of course you can find them online.  If you ever want to center a gel pen and cut in shadow this is your way to go.
For gel pens I slow down the speed to 3-5 and lower the pressure to around 10.
I love the look of the chalky gel pens on Kraft cardstock.  You can preorder the Cameo 4 tools here... Chomas Creations

More info on the Brother Scan N Cut precision tip

Brother Scan N Cut Chomas Creations precision tip answers! Have questions ask here and I will edit this post to answer the rest for a go to for people trying it out! I'm still learning the machine a bit so be patient and if you know the answer please help out :) My kids are still on Christmas break here lol!

Which machines will it work in? Works in the entire line of Scan N Cut machines

What can I engrave on? Anything that fits under the rollers. You have 2 mm clearance on the CM and 3 mm clearance on the DX. I say if it fits I'm going for it.
Acrylic, aluminum, jewelry blanks, give it a go!

What settings do you use? I've been copying and pasting my design on top of each other in the software as the way to multi cut. I use a slower speed around 4 and a pressure around 8. Make sure you select draw in the software and draw on the machine. Also when it asks for the correct tool in the machine go ahead and hit ok!

They are in stock now and shipping! Can't wait to see what everyone does with them :)
