1) I don't think type of blade will matter. A blade is a blade. I think mine's a #11 and it works perfectly.
2)In some cases, yes. If you want your models to look better, last longer, won't sog when glue is put on them, and you won't be able to see the glue under light, use cardstock. If you use regular paper, colors don't come out as sharp, models are more easily breakable than if you used cardstock, accidental overuse of glue can cause major damage to the finished product, and you can see through the paper, meaning you'll see tabs and glue under light. One downside to cardstock though is that some of it is too thick for certain people's tastes. Like in a very small model, you will be leaving a lot of noticeable white lines from the paper thickness. This is not a problem for me, though some people go batshit insane over it. If you don't like white lines but still want to use cardstock, color the edges before you assemble them with a felt tip colored pen, or you can go with a thinner cardstock. The recommended is 110lb. though some people recommend lower (I think it was 80lb.)
3)Dunno. Someone else can help you here.
