I would think it would work the same way. I don’t have access to A4 paper but I imagine the technique would translate.

Thats awesome! I don’t really play around with the infusible ink sheets since I have a printer and can print things, but that definitely opens up the possibility for hand drawing. Plus the materials are easy to obtain at most craft stores. 😊

The laser wouldn’t cut through the bottom layer. Once the laser hits the clear it would essentially scatter and not cut. You could try with two diode compatible colors and set your settings to the thickness of the 2 materials combined (ie 6 mm for 2 pieces of 3 mm)

Thanks so much 😊

Funny you mentioned that… My husband actually suggested the same thing when I showed him that tiny square in the beginning. I’m guessing you would have to do a super deep engraving or potentially a set of layers with say 1.5 mm acrylic. My only concern would be the fluid trying to leak out.

​@@LabcraftStudioI believe I saw that they were 3 layers of acrylic

Like @Serkunny said, maybe it could work with 3 layers of acrylic, the one un the middle will be an outline/silhouette wall, creating a hollow in the middle. Perhaps without liquids, but just glitter and tiny cute charms inside. It would be interesting to explore the possibilities with different thickness, the one in front could be thinner than the others, or whatever.

Yes, I feel like KZbin was telling me I need to do this in the near future because I just saw a short from Glowforge that did something very similar. I also have 1.5 mm acrylic coming tomorrow so… 🥽🔥

I really recommend the Bambu line. I have a P1S. They're easy to set up and work with. I actually plan to do a whole beginner series in the near future. (Within a month)

You certainly could. I personally use the 11 x 17“ hack from my previous video and just periodically cut a new jig out of watercolor paper when my mat gets old or needs cleaned. But vinyl would probably work with this method as well. The only downside would be if you stick vinyl to the mat, you probably aren’t going to get it back up.

@@LabcraftStudio I agree that it might be stuck permanently. But I have extra mats...so there's that!

I use the JOYEZA Premium Printable Vinyl Sticker Paper for Inkjet Printer on Amazon.

@@LabcraftStudio Thanks!

I don't have a silhouette. I'm sorry. :(

I used PLA in this method with my standard 220C nozzle and 55C bed. I have not tried to sublimate TPU so I don’t know if that may play a role since it’s a different material.

You could but you may see spots from the holes on the iron's bottom.

I used a Cricut to cut my stickers. I typically print them on printable vinyl paper and seal them with self adhesive laminate such as those by Avery. I have a Gwieke Cloud CO2 laser machine but there a several brands out there for cutting acrylic. To cut clear acrylic you'll need a CO2 laser not a diode laser. As for the clear acrylic and I used standard 3 mm clear cast acrylic and then UV resin for the top layer.

I did a video using that technique a few weeks ago. 😊 Check out my link in the pinned comment.

I made a video explaining this actually. Here's the link to that: Updated for Canva | How To Make FULL Page of Stickers on Cricut with this Hack 🤯 kzbin.info/www/bejne/f4KYq5ymq9Wgl6s

Thanks for the sub!

I have a live stream where I designed the pin and set it up for printing. Check out the craft and chill on making pins over on my channel.

The default 55 C.

Yes you can! I did an updated video on this a few weeks ago! Check our my pinned comment.

@@LabcraftStudio you got my subscribe😊

Welcome to the club! Now you are one of us. *ONE OF US. ONE OF US.*

😊😊

You're welcome! I do have HF and am slowly figuring out color aware but I will admit this is faster. My recent video where I sublimate as it's printing is even easier too.

Hehe this was shot about a month before I got my P1S. You should check out my shorts to see what I've been up to. 🤣

Yes everybody loves prints that take 20x as long and where 75% of the material goes down the poop chute...

I personally don't send a print to the machine unless I get my waste down to less than 50% and frequently smaller than that if I can. I also ship my poop to recycling.

You should go to school before commenting

@@daliasprints9798 It really doesn't add much to the print time. With newer printers running 5-10x the speed of older ones, there is virtually no difference, and anyone with even a remotely good slicer can set it to actually build a model with the excess when changing colors, especially if you are making something where the color doesn't matter. I see it used often to make things like filament clips and the like, so there is little to no waste.

Aww, thank you!

You are so welcome!

Make sure you select the little checkbox that says "show margins" under the margins tab when you first create the file.

Yes the offset that is duplicated 3 times is what creates the die cut.

Oh that's awesome? Is this a Discord group? I'm thinking about starting one as part of a patreon.

Maybe a really thin line of black? Cricut needs something to see to keep the full page size
