It really depends on how intricate the design is. For the most part the 45 will work. For really intriciate stuff a 60 would work better.
As for re-inventing the wheel. We all have to do that, there are a lot of factors involved. Each machine is going to be different slightly. Plus everybody's blade sticks out differently, and actually the paper even if we used the same paper can alter by different lots sold. I know it is a pain. I keep a note book with scraps in it, and write down the force and speed and if my blade is new older older or about dead. LOL, I am lazy hate changing things. Humidity can play a part in it also.
