O.K. and you then cut all the inside pieces first? but you still have a problem when you get to the end with movement right, usually I cut the outside shape then cut the inside pieces to work with a smaller piece, luckily I'm not beyond learning a new thing or two...I can try this

I am one of those who use hot melt glue along the edges of the stack. When cutting ornaments I drill a entry hole next to the pattern to cut it out rather than cutting in from the edge so the stack stays together for the remainder of the ornaments.

I tape mine together with clear packing tape, butI do like dg's idea about the melt glue and making entry hole instead of cutting in from the side. Learnt something again today

So, I've been taping them together and it works very well, much better than the nails I was using, I like the hot melt idea but then you have to plug it in, wait then glue, tape seems faster, thanks all!

I always use clear packing tape. I have learned that clear packing tape helps lube the blade so it'll last longer and after cutting some thick purpleheart without the tape(I forgot to put it on!)I only got around half the blade life.
