OMG, I have to thank you for making so many videos. I am a fortunate LEFTY that bought version 3, blue handle. I am sure I have had it for at least 4 years now, never changed the blade, still cuts through Jeans, 1 leg at a time. I do a lot of alterations and it has cut through dozens of jeans hems. Admittedly, I don't do hardly any patchwork anymore, that is going to change tho, but jeans on the seams are like 6 layers of fabric,still works perfectly, and I am just cleaning my blade today, should be sharper now, but this is such a WONDERFUL video, all of yours are, But I WANT TO THANK YOU AGAIN. I love Martelli because of you and now, yes been living under a rock, I see they have a purple mat, is there any other colour in the world, NO, I have to have everything PURPLE. Please keep making great videos and Winner Products. :)

Thank you for making & keeping this video available!! When cutting, my cutter would skip & not cut a "clean line", so I thought it was dull blades & kept replacing them. No wonder why it skipped, mine was so gunked up, kept getting stuck with all the gunk & couldn't turn properly!!! I was also applying more pressure than needed which was making lines in my cutting mat. I wasn't sure how to take it apart for cleaning until watching this video. After a proper cleaning, its working great again (I even tried the old blades I thought was dull, ended up cutting smoothly). THANK YOU!!!

i'd love to see you folks at a show again, My cutters need a cleaning something terrible, I have both sizes, when the 60 seemed like it was froze up I just went to the 45, now it's due for a cleaning too - Thanks for the great video!

You are so good at this! Wow! You should have your own studio, you will be a Great Success!

Thank you for the info. It was very helpful

The spring fell off of the red piece when I was cleaning the cutter. There was lint even under the red piece. I don’t know which way to turn the spring when reattaching gets to the red piece. Which grove does the spring hook go around? I’m sorry, I should have watched the video before changing the blade!

I just purchased at 28mm and I have noticed fluff under the clear plastic and being so small it is hard to get it out. Any suggestions? I have quite a few 45mm blades from other brands and since I live in Australia I don't want to ruin the bolt so as soon as the other blades wear out, I will invest in a Martelli 45mm rotary cutter. Thanks for the video.

I have a right handed Martello cutter that I bought about 2 years ago. Was very excited about it until I had to change the blade. The screw WOULD NOT TURN, I put it aside snd sorta forgot about it. I bought another 45mm cutter. I would very much like to get this problem sorted out so that I can use it as I have arthritis and your cutter was very highly recommended to me for that reason. I cannot find a customer service number so I am hoping you can and will help me. Thank you in advance.

Are there ever any trade shows near N Dakota?

Wonderful information. While trying to clean my cutter, the spring popped out. Where can I find a picture that can help me reassemble my cutter?

There is one question rising in me: How can I cut with a ruler, if I have to cut on the side of my body? Usually one has to press the ruler down while cutting - and then I have the ruler in front of my body. I haven't seen you cutting with a ruler here in this video.

Can you upgrade the 60ml as well as the 45ml?

Good info!

My spring flew out; how do i reattach it.

Can’t change blades 2:27

I just got my cutter today and tried trimming some squares. It’s horrible! I can cut one side of a square easily with this cutter. But, when I had to cut across the top of a square, I had to twist my wrist and arm in a terrible position...very painful.

This video is five years old. Does that mean that if I go on Amazon and buy a Martelli 2000 rotary cutter, it will be a Version 3? I live in Central Europe, would have to buy from the UK, and there's no way I'm going to a quilting show in the US to deal with problems with the cutter! Also, lots of complaints on Amazon.uk about how the cutter is dull on arrival, the blades freeze if you put it away and don't use it for awhile, that the blades dull easily, that it falls apart (some spring pops out) when you try to change the blades, that you can't change the blades safely...

How much does it cost and where can I order one?

A toothpick will get the grime out too.

The screw is so tight that I can't loosen it and the blade doesn't roll.

my spring went flying, how do i put it back in?

I sure would one cuter for l eft hand person thanks

Just went to the Martelli store here in Pensacola. Let me tell you how much I enjoyed meeting Lisa. She demonstrated very thing with a great patients. Love this place. Come and see for yourself.

THIS IS THE VERY BEST ROTARY CUTTER ON THE MARKET, PERIOD... Love ALL of their products & will never go back to anything else on the market... THANK YOU, MARTELLI...

Nice to see you again at the Lakeland's Sewing and Quilting Expo. I was having problems with the Martelli cutter. A simple cleaning, as described in your video, fixed it. Also just ordered two templates: the box and burp pad. Looking forward to much sewing, specifically the Halloween bags.

Exactly what I was having issues with. PROBLEM SOLVED!! THANK YOU!!!! :)

Thanks!! Mine is new but I am sure it will be dirty soon!

and now you've taken the oil off could we re oil it,,,,as the oil helps it roll a bit better or am i wrong?

Never seen them in New Zealand , what a shame, this leftie would love one

Help! Bought rotary cutter and worked beautifully .... Until I cleaned it. I followed your instructions exactly. Now the blade won't turn freely. What do I do now? Screw is also hard to align and turn? Feels like the threads don't quite match.

Can a Martell blade be sharpened by a true sharp 2?
