I am brand new to using any kind of cricut and got the maker 3. I’m a bit overwhelmed by everything to learn. This is a great intro to the tips! Love how quick and simple it is- some other videos are so long because there’s so much chatting going on. Thank you!! Definitely subscribed! ❤

[@DIYAlex]

I’m so happy this was helpful for you! Welcome to my Crafty Fam ☺️

[@chloemarshall7873]

You literally answered my main question in 0:47 seconds!!! I just purchased a refurbished Cricut and had noooo idea what I needed in clamp A, lol. Thank you!!

[@DIYAlex]

Glad I could help! 😊💕

[@Dee_B23]

This is a fantastic tutorial for those of us that are new to the Maker. I am excited to use the Rotary Blade and Engraving. Thank you so much Alex! 💕💕💕💕💕

[@DIYAlex]

Yay! You’re so welcome!

[@user-me9fi8sj4n]

I am so happy I found you. I have been trying to "demystify" this for months. I also bought so many things I didn't need since I couldn't find good advice. Thank you for the clarity!

[@DIYAlex]

I'm so glad you're here! I hope the videos help :)

[@towel1031]

Thank you!

[@Diva-tf2pl]

I am new to the cricut 3 machine and I am excited about the engraving tool. Thanks for the tutorial. ❤

[@DIYAlex]

You are so welcome!

[@heideh3272]

I have had my cricut for 2 years now and never really used it. Your tutorial is straight and to the point. I'm going to start using it. Your videos are so helpful! Thank you!

[@DIYAlex]

Yay! I'm so excited to see what you make with your Cricut!

[@tutuscakesllc4176]

Thank you for taking the time to explain this. I just received a used Cricut maker and it was missing a few tools. This was very easy.

[@DIYAlex]

I’m so glad it was helpful! Thanks so much!

[@ugandy3417]

What a great video! Thanks and may God keep blessing you!

[@DIYAlex]

Thank you!!

[@Alylove13]

Thank you for this tutorial!!

[@DIYAlex]

You’re welcome!

[@sarahbritt5992]

I love your explanation of the types of tools. I'm purchasing a Maker as a Xmas gift to myself. I have the Air 2. Thank you.

[@DIYAlex]

You’re welcome!

[@SheWritesHerJourney_]

Oh my goodness!!! I love this video, so many tools 😂! New subbie!

[@DIYAlex]

Yes, so many!! Haha welcome! I’m glad you’re here!

[@sarah1484]

I’m new but that engraving tools looks amazing. I’m not ready for it just yet.

[@DIYAlex]

It’s pretty neat!

[@mhopper3405]

This was fantastic tutorial but could you show how to get the plastic safety tips off the blades only for the swapping with quick housing? I'm definitely looking forward to the individual blade tutorials (embossing, engraving, more examples of single score line & 2nd score line usage and materials used, along where to buy the blanks). Thank you!

[@DIYAlex]

I'm so glad you liked it! I'm not sure what you're asking about the safety tips. You just slide them off or on :). Can you explain what you're confused about? I'm starting on the next videos so they'll be coming in late February!

[@karren07161]

Great video, I have the engraving tip, do I need a special housing piece to use this piece?

[@DIYAlex]

Yes, you need quick swap housing to use it.

[@stephanieduarte4118]

Great video- 👍 want to see how to use engraving tip.

[@DIYAlex]

I know everyone is going to love that one! Thank you!

[@AtinaEstrella]

Alex, with Cricut Maker 3, can I used my regular vinyls (HTV or Adhesive)?

[@DIYAlex]

Oh yes definitely!

[@gilliancrowley8539]

I got a score wheel but it won't work in my maker please help

[@DIYAlex]

I would contact Cricut customer service.

[@jo-anndunn515]

I was just say there has to be ways to organize all these blades why don't they come with covers... lol so thank you!

[@DIYAlex]

You’re welcome!!
