New #cricut Maker bundle today! It was the very last one in our local #joann and was only $125. Usually MUCH more expensive!
My old one is behind it, and kinda in pieces.
I was not expecting today to be new Cricut day, but my husband has been keeping an eye on the prices and asked about this one himself.
I'm VERY lucky to have such a husband, oh my actual god.
Just thrilled by this today.
Currently if I want to print custom cards for an RPG or board game I just use my home printer and a guillotine, and it's slow and inaccurate.
Is there a way to automate this process short of getting a full die-cutting machine (like a cricut)? It seems like overkill just to cut out rectangles of paper.
Protest sign progress is underway!
White lady with a #cricut coming through 
!
Curious - is there anyone out there that uses cricut and Cricut Design Space? I'm having an issue (just got it today). I made the page exactly how I want it cut. (I'm doing Print and Cut) - picture 1 - how it looks before I send it to print - and picture 2 - how it actually prints. How do I keep the text white?
My Cricut has about had it. The rollers did that thing where they move around. I tried to do the repair but the new ones do the same thing.
Does anyone here have a Silhouette? How would you compare it to the Cricut? Does it do this stupid thing with the rollers?
@emily_s My wife has a cricut.
I've used it a handful of times. The cloud software that it forced upon it is so limited and remedial that I ended up using #Inkscape to create what I wanted (racing number roundels for the cars).
It was a pain to import the Inkscape files but it worked well enough. IIRC I still had to use their cheesey software to set up the layering properly but it worked. Everything useful in the software is a subscription/purchase as well. Double plus evil IMO.
This was last winter. I'd expect the software has been more downgraded since then - wouldn't be surprised if you can't do that any more - or have to pay for it on an import by import basis.
Yep, won't buy another #cricut
I was lamenting that I bought a #Prusa XL after my buddy bought a similar #Bambu that was considerably cheaper. After this Bambu BS I have no regrets.
Whatever hubby wants, mama provides. Custom cases for his gamer gear I got you.

Got a #cricut recently, decorated my #SteamDeck case with it. Maybe should have made the Fox Hound patch a little smaller, but I'm happy with it overall.
Has anyone had any luck replacing the rubber rollers on their #cricut Maker?
Meanwhile, other experiments continue apace.
(NB: the black backing is the only matte iron on I have at home right now.)
Second attempt that includes strategic iron wiggling is significantly better. Iterative learning, baby.
Ok, first attempt at using iron-on vinyl (like, ever) is….ok but not great. It looks like there are a bunch of spots where the vinyl didn’t fuse. At a guess, those correspond with the dot pattern on my iron sole. Not ideal. I can probably buy a solid sole for the iron OR try to move the iron gently but enough to fuse everything down evenly.
This is why we use scrap fabric.
