Doesn’t this new Xyron tool look fun??

I have a Wishblade that I purchased about 4 1/2 years ago. I got frustrated trying to learn about it & put it up. I’ve recently subscribed to some WB groups (sharing GSD files, etc) & am wanting to try to learn it now.
My husband & I got it out today & plugged it all in. Trouble is, I still cannot get it to do anything on the screen. Plus, I’ve misplaced my cutting mats, etc. Do I have to have a cutting strip or is it on the machine. I see it as accessories. I cannot even find the book & the extra cutting tools.
From some Utube videos, I’m seeing more on-screen activity than I can do with mine. Are there upgrades to the drivers, etc. There was something about “welding” words on an HSN Utube video. I’m not able to do this with my program. Is it just too old to do any of this stuff… what do I do? Please help, I paid over $400 for it & the new ones are almost $500. I cannot believe that it is outdated. It’s called Wishblade “Advanced”… but it’s not that advanced! It’s a WB 100-20 model.
Thanks & God bless. I’d like to start WishBlading…!
