I use plastic poster board - about $2 for a 22" x 28" sheet at Michaels. I cut it down into 12" widths and then cut it on "Stencil Film - 0.4 mm" (pressure 341). It's nice and sturdy. I don't use spray adhesive: either I hold the stencil down by hand or I use a low-tack tape like painter's tape. For a stencil you'll want to tile (say you're looking to create an overall effect on a wall), remember to add a couple of tiny circles in the corners to use as registration marks so everything lines up correctly.

I read somewhere that I could use my laminator to make craft plastic! Just tried it and it worked PERFECT and didn’t need to do more than one pass with my normal blade! I just passed a clear laminate sheet through the laminator to seal it and cut it as normal on the card stock setting. Such a great trick!!!!!

We were searching all over to see if these machines could cut stencils before purchasing one but could not find any info anywhere - until we came across your video. We don't want to cut vinyl letters, no scrapbooking, postcards etc., we just wanted something that could create good quality stencils. The thickness still doesn't seem thick enough but the video was still very helpful. Thanks a bunch!

Thanks for sharing that. I’ve made a few stencils over the years with dies. I use 0.4mm Mylar. It’s the same thing that proprietary stencils are made of. It’s easy to use and very durable. 🌼 I don’t use adhesive either, I use the Wendy Vecchi Stay-tion. The magnets hold the stencil and paper down fast.

Do you use a deep cut blade with the Mylar? Is the 0.4 Mylar easy to obtain at like Michaels or Hobby Lobby? Do you use a special pressure setting other than just the default or more setting? My son is asking me to make him reusable stencils and want to do it right. I have a Cricut Maker.

Hi Scott! I don't know if you put a topcoat on your wood first but it definitely helps your vinyl to adhere to your wood! This is what you have to do with furniture transfers I've used also. A nice water base I use is Minwax Polycrylic or Varathan triple thick Polyurethane water base that is a great water repellent on surfaces that would get a lot of use. My daughter used it on her custom wooden bathroom sink counter and her boys leave water on the counter top lol truly tried and no damage 😉 hope this helps you!

Thank you so very much! I'm getting a new kitchen put in, and want to create scenes on the outside of the cupboards. Imagine a guest asking, "where are the cups?" And I say, "in the Mountain." That said, though, buying stencils to use once, maybe twice, was quickly adding up, and tbh, it was almost the price of getting a shiny new Cricut Explore Air 2! Yeah, no. Plus with the Cricut, I'm thinking stencils with paint and then lovely custom stickers would be fantastic. Thank you for the tutorial! My brain is vibrating with ideas now.

Great Tutorial... I used the same plastic stencil sheets (0.007) and used the same settings. however it did not cut all the way through for me. I had to force my Maker to cut twice. I initially just edited the 'transparency' material and later I ended up creating my custom material which I named Stencil 0.007 and used the same pressure as the Transparency but activated the multiple cuts option. I tried 4 times first (overkill) then down to 3 and 2 was good. Just throwing this out there in case anyone has the same issue as I did.

Since the black housing for the deep cut is the same as the fine point you don't need to worry about it. Cricut assumes it's the fine point even though it's the deep cut.

I have a cricut air 2 and I have never seen an option to "use more pressure" or to find other materials. I have a dial on my cricut machine with 8 settings (custom, paper, vinyl, iron-on, light cardstock, cardstock, Bonded fabric and poster board. I liked one of the comments that said they used "laminate sheets" which will be great for me! but Im just wondering which setting I should use.

Thank you so for getting me through making a stencil. It makes big projects easier. I have one question though. When there letters with a centerpiece, i.e., O D A, how do you keep the inside within the stencil. I'm holding down the center of O, making a mess. The middle of the A is so small and the D is almost as difficult. Really appreciate your help. Genevieve

Hello! So, this can be a tricky process! The best thing to do in our opinion is just to hold it down with the back of a paintbrush or something while you're stenciling.

Stencil fonts usually have breaks in the cross bar of the A, or part of the O, D, P, R, Q, B to prevent "the inside" from slipping or falling out. There are two ways to fill in these breaks: one, to manually add them in once you've lifted the stenci; two, to make two almost-identical stencils with letter the breaks in different places. Use the first stencil to paint, marker, color, etc. your substrate. Lift the stencil and let everything dry. Then place the second stencil over the now-dry project, exposing the breaks in those letters, and color everything in (essentially, adding a second coat to most of the letters).

Wow! Thank you so much for this tutorial! I watched it over and over again to be sure I was doing it correctly and appreciated all of the tips. Only question i still have is how do you tell the Cricut Maker you want to use the Knife blade--will do some research, unless someone can answer this question. Thank you!

Use the deep cut blade. You don't need to tell your machine on that one. It's the one with the black housing.

Do you spray the adhesive each time before use? And do you have you have to clean the adhesive off between uses?
@MakersGonnaLearn
@MakersGonnaLearn 4 жыл бұрын
It's all personal preference. If you don't think it's very sticky, spray it again :) And you can clean the adhesive off between uses, or leave it on and just cover it with plastic wrap or some other type of protector sheet.
