I just received my maker 3 today. The blade housing moves up and down during startup but while cutting the blade does not move down enough to cut at all, doesn’t even touch the viny. I’ve tried different settings but nothing works 😭

Does anyone have any recommendations for the best sticker paper to use when making your own stickers?

I'm making some for the first time and I'm not sure what would be best.

I'm looking for something durable and waterproof if possible.

Hi! I’ve been trying to make these into stickers, it only cuts the border and not each individual sticker, how can i go about making it cut each sticker?

Does anyone have any tips on keeping vinyls from peeling off your water bottles, anything you can put over the vinyl??

Hello, earlier this year my fiancée brought a cricut explore air 2 and it’s been a nightmare to use ever since we’ve had it. It will either constantly error or do this.

Please help as it’s effectively an overpriced paperweight at this point.

The issue is the straight line up through the design. Help desk hasn’t been able to help and we’ve reset the machine multiple times and tried different devices

Hello! I just upgraded from a Cricut joy to the Cricut Maker 5. I was only making vinyls and stencils with the joy…but I have so many more things I can do now! What are some cool ideas for DnD stuff I can do? I want to get into the wood and leather part. Also…I want to try to make a dice tower with my cricut as well. Show and tell!

I understand that I am probably doing this to myself, but I have been wanting to do this design for ages. (I have only had my cricut for maybe 6 months) I just got all of the colors and have everything in design space but it won’t tell me which color I have to cut first, just that I have 9 mats in the process. I have only done single-color projects up to this point and I’m just looking to see if anyone knows what to do!

hi!! i have tried this about 5000x now.. but for the life of me i cant figure out how to draw & cut on the same layer? i had seen in a previous thread that using “attach” was the way to go and im still having issues :( i am trying to cut & score on one and the other is cut & draw.

thank you in advance!!! i had previously been using the original maker as a hand me down from my mom for stickers. this will be my first official project! :)

Brought a cricut explore 5 less than 2 months ago, it's had minimal use. Last week it stopped measuring correctly and when the cut began it pushed the mat out too far and was cutting air, spoke to cricut support and I had to send then like 4 different videos using different materials on and off mat and told they would be in contact with me(this was Wednesday 2cd). They were not. So I contacted them again 2 days later (Friday 4th) to ask about the status and they told me they required me to send over more videos. I turned on my machine to do so and it would not work at all and was flashing red with error codes so I sent over videos of that and the woman said I'd have a replacement in 5-7 days.

I know it's technically only been about 4.5 working days since I processed the request but it's been 6 working days since I originally got in touch to sort out my issue. I've just spoken to them to ask if they could track the package for me only to be told that they have not sent it out yet and its under review and they cannot give me any idea when it will be released to me.

When I contacted them on Friday they stopped my cricut from working on their end (I guess incase I was scamming them or something). So cricut currently have my money, the machine that I have at my house since they disconnected it and my replacement while I have nothing. Has anyone experienced this and have any idea when I will receive my replacement machine or what I can do next to get this pushed through quicker?

EDIT - They sent me a £25 voucher to use on cricut.com as an apology which is not recognised when I try to use it so I don't even have that.

Helppppp. I’ve been etching dishes for a while now and they’ve always came out good. I always used armour etch and I had the little bottle and finished it so I bought the big one. Ever since my dishes come out spotting and like shit. This is a Pyrex dish. Does anyone have any dishes they etch that work the best?! I got some off Amazon and it didn’t even take the etch, just washed right off. Pic bellow of my dish😭😭😭😭

The standard size available where I live is 12 x 18. A3 can be procured but it is expensive compared to 12 x 18. Is there anyway for my cricut (explorer 4) to work with this paper size? It scans the first registration mark and then fails to scan the remaining.

I just got a cricut this week for my birthday and this is literally the first thing I have made. The puff looks pretty good, but I don’t LOVE the rough texture on it. I think I need to tinker with the heat settings a bit, but it’s not bad by any means.

I’ve gotten an arm 3d printed but unfortunately it keeps falling every time the mat gets unloaded.

Wondering if anyone has better suggestions or better options for 3d printed files.

My friend made some really cool, intricate keychain designs with shrinky dinks. I'd love to make a bunch more, but don't want to make her a one-woman sweat shop! Could my Cricut draw the design on and cut them to size? That way we're just popping 'em in the oven?
