Another update I pushed both Steam rams through the cutter which meant about 10 pages cut (I had a few chassis build failures with glue experimentation)
I pushed the cut pressure up to 28 at one point just to see if I could elicit a slip and no slipping.
I do still have a problem with alignment in the top right corner of the page but I think my cutter was starting to experience that prior to the above fix (checked some old cut sheets I haven't assembled and they were slightly out) I just appear to have made it worse some of the time. Possibly one of the rollers is also not pushing as hard as it needs to...

cutters playing up really bad now skipping and slipping all over the place.
One of the aussie scrapebooking places has the portraits available at a reasonably un-inflated price (same as US + what Id pay for shipping to get it here) so I've picked one up, until it arrives I think I'm back to hand cutting, unless I can convince my robo to start working again.
On the plus side I guess I'll find out how well my new combined SD/Cameo template works ;D
edit: i forgot to mention over the past few pages of cuts I'd started to sort out the top right corner issue. My cutter also appears to have become overly sensitive to alignment mark placement so if my printer printed the marks of square I had to load the page so the marks were square not the so the page was square. Hope that makes sense. Oddly the little eye still found the marks it just doesn't compensate very well anymore...assuming it ever did and its not just my printer on the way out as well....

Wow I just wanted to chime in that to be able to come here and read this was great. I have not had the opportunity to cut models like you maniacs but I plan on it in the future. So THANKS to all of you for your work, and discussion that resulted in a solution.
