Hahaha 😂 In the most sweet, understanding tone, "Guys, some of you have so much ambition, right out of the gate.." I've definitely butchered a handful of sheets due to ambition. 😂 Love your videos! Your demeanor makes me seek out Cricut info on your channel before looking elsewhere. Keep up the hard work!

I started with a Joy, Smart vinyl and paper, and by default often tiny letters. Turns out, it was great because I learned a lot, made a lot, and now any machine is a breeze. I took what I learned watching your videos and applied it to my work and voila...success!

When you get your Cricut Maker3, your test cut is using SmartVinyl. I rather like it, to be honest. I got my Cricut on Tuesday and started immediately scrambling for supplies. On the opposite end of the thickness, I have also already made.a sign with dollar tree vinyl just to challenge myself (worked beautifully, but you have to take it slow and careful. Crafting isn't NASCAR, people), and I've done some CUTE totes and bags with infusible ink markers. I think I'm going to try the glitter tonight, just because I love a challenge. This is just too much fun!

Bought a stock of the tools. Don’t do it. Tanner is so right here!!!! This should be one of the first videos for a newbie to watch. I wished I had seen it.

I've wanted one of these machines for 20 years and never thought I'd get one. 2 weeks after the release of the Maker 3 my new bf (well, we'd been together a number of years but long distance) had just moved in with me when i found out he'd been saving for a few years to buy me one and so he did. I jumped in to learning... I tend to over research everything because i have stupid bad luck but what's funny is how I wanted to cry upon learning that there's this whole community of ppl who have had one of these machines and never use them out of fear of breaking them or whatever. I've used mine ever day. I've done glitter paper.. not vinyl but I don't mess much with vinyl. Just not my thing. I haven't had the trouble everyone talks about. I have lots of glitter stuff I've been hesitant to use tho. I have all but one blade and used most of them and love them. Hell, I've even rummaged thru Gpas scrap pile to see what i can fit thru it. Mind you, I've replaced lots of mats and blades but have yet to have trouble with any of this stuff. My lighting sucks something fierce but i ran off with the bfs battery lights for fixing his car and he built me a light board. I don't use it much. I want to. I would buy that light. I don't know why i put it off. I've had great luck with the smart materials too. Maybe a 2nd run thru the machine before pulling it because i hate weeding and haven't busted out the transfer tape yet either. But i love jumping in and just doing it. I've used it near every day. I haven't killed it. I've been super careful and if ever I'm not real sure i look it up first (generally every tutorial and cricut official info site i can to the tune of 2 days and or i call them and then do whatever wild thing I'm thinking... Just so I don't void the warranty. But they're so much fun! Don't be afraid of them! Just be careful with them. Don't jump blind either.

I agree with the light pad. My craft workshop is in my basement so it’s dim. I bought a light pad off brand for $30 on Amazon. It really doesn’t help with weeding. With the vinyl I use it doesn’t shine through the weed cut lines anyway. I’d say skip it.

Yes! Small letters suck, and also ,the script fonts are hard to do . I've gotten a little overambitious. That's what I did with the print then cut. Also, cheat! I had a hard time weeding even printable htv with thin script letters. So use an off-set the same color as your shirt. It still looks pretty good. Will definitely try the siser easy weed vinyl though.

Ive had my Maker for coming up on a year now, and I couldn't agree more with this whole video. I'm just now diving into my knife blade, and I still want to pull my hair out most times lol. And to follow up with the brightpad, I use the "Go" version, and really have a hard time liking it, especially for the price. The battery doesn't last long at all, it's not scratch resistant and I still can't see through glitter vinyl. I only ever use it for layering permanent vinyl, because I can match the bottom layer up better.

I've had my Maker since 2019 and still consider myself a newbie. I've used many of the adaptive tools and did tons of research before using them. I didn't remember everything that was said in the blogs and videos that I read and watched. I've done iron-on without a press, Easy or otherwise, cut wood, vinyl and paper. I believe as an artist/crafter, you will have fails (I've managed to melt copper and that's hard...I make jewelry), but that's part of creating. With my Cricut, however, I find Design Space, and the fact that all materials are not created equal (even within the same brand), the biggest obstacle to success, even when I'm doing something I've done before. I've read where people keep meticulous notes with everything that they make. I'm beginning to believe that they have the right idea.🦋

I only just bought a cricut a couple of months ago, hoping to make stickers and t shirts and possibly sell them. LOL, I didn't understand anything and I still don't! The only material I've ever printed with is smart material because I don't have a cutting mat, and I agree it is SO hard! And honestly, the lack of cutting mat means that I can't print material that's not 13 inches wide(Cricut explore 3). The most helpful tip was definitely smart material, I'm going to try and veer away from it! Thank you for making this video, it was reallly helpful and I no longer feel as lost as I did before!

Can you talk about the print and cut thing. How do I do it and then use the cricut?
@brianserrao2331

I would like to find out something. I've been ending up with small pieces of vinyl around 4"x5", 5"x7" and other smaller pieces in that vicinity where size is concerned. What I would like to know is how can I utilize these small pieces with the Cricut Maker 3, and not have to discard them? Whenever I make a small vinyl design and attach it to the mat, and feed it into the Cricut machine, it comes back out telling me that the piece of vinyl is too small for the job. this of course is not the case as the design is small than piece of vinyl being used. Is the situation here that I always have to use a full 12"x12" piece of vinyl?

You can also get a light pad that isn't "branded" for a lot cheaper than a bright pad

I tried to weed glitter vinyl and it was a fiasco. How often to you change the blade? Or how do you know when to change it?

Using anything glitter tends to dull your blade really quickly and caused me a huge amount of frustration in the beginning until I found this handy tip...ball up a piece of tin foil and poke whatever blade your using into it several times. This not only removes any residue you may have on your blade but it sharpens it as well. Save the tinfoil ball in a nearby drawer or something and reuse it whenever you need it. Hope this helps ❤️

I agree with the Smart Materials. I had a project that I wanted to do last October involving the orange smart vinyl. I dropped making it, and I'm stuck wit the color, plus, I wait for a sale. I have both the Maker and the Maker 3 because I have a business. I have been cutting with the Cricut since the baby cricut came out. (Original Cricut) I also agree with the Bright Pad. I still have my original one, and I forget to use it for weeding. It got some use when my nephew was living with me. He used it to trace, but that was it. When Cricut changed it up with the new bright pad. I did not feel the need to buy the new one.

If they don't already make this, I may have thought of an AMAZING idea for Cricut to come out with! They should have sheets of double sided tape! So it's a roll like the vinyl and transfer foil, except all it is is double-sided tape. Then you could pour glitter on the shape the cricut cut out of the tape, then you have glitter without having to use glitter vinyl! Oooh, they could have sealant vinyl too where it's just clear vinyl that seals all of those little glitters in! Not too sure how well the glitter will stick, but if the glue is tacky enough, it should stick decently well.

Hi Tanner! I am trying to figure out if I need a double scoring wheel :) I saw that it comes in a combo pack with the single scoring wheel and wasn’t sure if it was worth the money
@lisachurch4967
@lisachurch4967 2 жыл бұрын
In my opinion it is worth the money. I use the double wheel most of the time. For anything thicker than thin cardstock, it's great for making the folds nice and clean.

Yesterday while using my Cricut the right roller bumper started to move to the left. This slowed the mat board and made my project slightly off center. Moving it back to its proper location was difficult but it will not stay where needs to be. Any suggestions?

Im sure the beginners starting out, the majority that I hear is 'I don't want to waste materials because they are expensive'. so they find the smallest thing and want to cut that out and then get frustrated when its the hardest thing to weed. especially if you haven't found the right vinyl that works for you.

@@mscrystald1 after having my cricut for a few years, cricut in anyway shape or form is one of the vinyls I don’t like the most and I can get 5 yards of oracal for the same cost if not less for 1/3 of roll of cricut. It’s just not worth it in my opinion

If I have the Explore 3 that is 13", how would I be able to use regular vinyl that is 12"? I am new to Cricut, but all videos I've seen don't seem to mention that that is possible.
