Okay, possibly stupid question here! Why do we use our heat gun to take the sticky tags off of our items, but use the heat gun to "activate" the sticky to set the vinyl?

[@lisachurch4967]

For me at this point none of these hacks are new. If for whatever reason I need to keep my mat flat I just stick a ruler in the storage drawer. I use coffee filters instead of paper towels for alcohol. They are cheaper and aren't linty.

[@Chrissy_Mad-Scots-Wench]

Love both versions of replacing the cover sheets on the cutting mats. Will definitely try both. I usually take mine and using the Taco fold, line up with the hanging hole and let go. 9 ✖️ out 10 that’s it. Love watching Corine, she’s always got great ideas ❤❤

[@NKOTBJenn89]

I found an easier way to put the cover sheets on the mats. Hang the mat on a hook like you have behind you, then just hang the cover sheet right on top. Works every time.

[@claudiaramos4273]

They are all great but with the felt hack when lining the mat with the transfer paper I leave the paper backing on it, use the taco method, weed the transfer paper to ensure there are no air bubbles and than I remove the paper backing. I find it easier this way. Hope this helps someone 😊

[@darleneousley7905]

I saw the hack with using the roll to keep your mat from dangling, however, I have my cricut maker 3 sitting on top of 2 monitor stands put together to elevate it. My husband has a 3D printer and he found a printable mat extension and it is a game changer. It just slips into the notch on the tool cover space and doesn't move - works amazingly.

[@ellen-marie6692]

I appreciate the reminder of the alternative for putting a cover back on a mat - I don’t really have the best space to put mine under my maker but have done it - this other way will probably work better from a space perspective. Not a fan of using the end of my weeding tool as the space is very small & cleaning it out will be more frustrating to me than other ways I discard my weeded bits - I actually made my own design on CDS to decorate a cleaned out wipes container (square type not tube style) as the inner opening is perfect for weeding. I shared my design on CDS, too. Love Corrine’s videos - I haven’t cut felt or fabric yet, will keep in mind if I do. Thanks, Tanner!

[@tchili1]

😅

[@iammarysue]

I don’t watch Tik Tok so thank you for sharing. I’m definitely going to do the heat gun on my vinyl! Also going to try the weeding tool hack 😀

[@MakersGonnaLearn]

You're welcome!

[@dskpetersen]

😲mind blown on cricut tool opening up for weeding!

[@yackie1010]

The weeding tool!!

[@LorraineCastellon-Rowe]

They're all great hacks, but heating the vinyl is new to me. I will try that one. Weeding with the end of the weeding tool is great for tiny designs but I don't usually make designs that small. Thanks for all the tips!!

[@MakersGonnaLearn]

You're welcome!

[@lindalindagrayoils6703]

Using the transfer tape. I make a lot of faux leather earrings and mats are always nasty from fibers.

[@jennifersilva7250]

So funny that I couldn't get my Cricut weeding tool end to pop out, but my dollar tree one did and it has it too! I finally got my cricut tools to pop out with a little more pressure and they all have it, even the ones not for weeding. YAY, cool hack.

[@inletseaster]

Not sure if anyone has already commented on this, the dual purpose weeding hack even works for the Dollar Tree weeding tool. The end cap removes, and has the same opening with the notched sides to catch your vinyl weeded material!

[@storiesinthedust]

I am a BIG fan of using a heat gun on vinyl!!! It heats up the adhesive but it also pushes out the air and almost “suctions” the vinyl to the glass/plastic/acrylic. It works amazing on PVC bags like you take to a stadium or on clear makeup bags

[@BlackNBlue10_4]

OMG!!!!! I am soooo happy I saw this before blinging my weeding tool. I had no idea it could separate.

[@lynnebizlyne436]

I love the weeding tool find! I had no ideas 😄 I do use the roll under my mat and I do like it. I work on the end of my table and when it’s on the roll cutting I can still finish in front of the machine.

[@pattiibarra3908]

All are good hacks. I’ve seen all before except heating vinyl. I’ll be trying that for sure.

[@robinhernandez8858]

The weeding tools from Dollar Tree also do the same thing!

[@28Tonitoca]

Love the felt hack, and the heat gun. ❤ Thank you for sharing.

[@MakersGonnaLearn]

So glad you love it!

[@storiesinthedust]

Could someone help me understand the difference between printable vinyl and vinyl sticker paper? Are they the same thing? What’s the benefit of the printable vinyl vs like a normal glossy sticker paper?

[@cheriethompson7725]

Thank you for sharing. I really loved the felt hack. Have a blessed day.

[@MakersGonnaLearn]

You're welcome!🙂

[@ljclibrary176]

Weeding tool was so cool ❤

[@barbrypstra5059]

I use the roll when cutting on a 12 x 24 mat

[@gracewest5504]

Why not put the transfer tape on the mat and then take off the paper before putting down the felt?

[@ToniasBusy]

I loved these!!! Could have used the weeding tip earlier today 😆

[@MegaMiaow]

The square template hack to fit all print and cut designs on is used by any cricut user already, surely? It's almost common sense. I like the heat gun sealing technique for the vinyl though.

[@vmiller735]

I tried and the roll actually rolled off one time so now I put a metal ruler in the bottom tray underneath the cover so it sticks out and holds the mat level. It actually works better.

[@Bookteacher-Carol]

Like heating the vinyl hack. Personally, I think roller hack is a waste of time. Even on the 24 in mat I have never had issues cutting. Thanks for sharing @Makers Gonna Learn

[@lindsi1977]

I do that with my 24 in mat but don't need it on the 12 in.

[@MusicalSaraJo]

The one using the transfer tape.

[@user-uk1ip1hm7n]

Thanks!

[@MakersGonnaLearn]

You're welcome!

[@mrgrinch61]

Tanner I like your method of reapplying the cover to the mat better than hers

[@lynseycrittenden5789]

Love these hacks👏👏

[@MakersGonnaLearn]

Thanks for watching!

[@wendywell4864]

Just chose this video randomly to ask you a question. Is there a way to find out the intention of the designers in Design Space? Yesterday I cut an envelope design and was unable to figure out the engineering of it to put it together. The envelope had a beautiful section at the top that may or may not should have been folded down. I searched and clicked on several things including the designer's name but could not find any instructions. It is frustrating! Although I let the image ghosted on the canvas, it was gone when I turned it on today. Quite often the images stay put if they are ghosted in the right hand column and sometimes they just are gone. Called Cricut helpline today but was not able to get a method to find instructions for the images. Thank you in advance if you have any suggestions.

[@shirleyotero1846]

Thank You Tanner i will be using the heat gun for the vinyl that a winner for me Thank You for teach us.

[@MakersGonnaLearn]

You're welcome!

[@christinabarnes1105]

Can a blow dryer work too?

[@irenegill4573]

Curious, would it be easier (for me) to just apply the sheet of transfer tape on the mat with the cover still on and then peel away the backing?

[@lisachurch4967]

Yes, yes, it would.😊

[@peace4callie]

I thought the same thing. May be easier to prevent bubbles. I'll have to try it. 😉

[@tinasbabydoll2709]

Lol I was thinking the same thing! It didn’t make one but if sense to remove the backing then trying to press on the sticky part with your fingers to adhere it to the mat

[@thecraftedmind1735]

Great hacks ❤

[@MakersGonnaLearn]

Glad you think so!

[@debbiedelay5745]

Just bought a year membership...so a newbie. Want to know the best HTV vinyl to buy.

[@MakersGonnaLearn]

Welcome welcome!

[@annbrown412]

Even the dollar tree one does the same cool

[@StitchNButton]

Loved the other hacks but the weeding hack is not so fantastic because it would only help with very small bits and then trying to get the bits out would be a big pain. I’ve seen where people think it was made for weeding but it really is only so they can put different color ends during manufacturing.

[@diannejenkins9128]

Yours

[@valeriebartrum8913]

Trick #2, I do it both ways, depends on how much room I have.

[@dawna-ba-da-bing]

Am I crazy or is the print then cut image doing a bigger size now?

[@lannlucas52]

Heat gun sealer on glass… but probably be a hair dryer right now….
