I thought I was getting a new computer for Christmas. Talk about surprised when I opened the first box to see a Cricut 3. My son overheard me talking with a niece at Thanksgiving who helped him find the right one and extras. I am gobsmacked! It’s been a very long time since I have been surprised at Christmas! My niece told me two things: A) Watch introductory videos before you even take it out of the box B) Use your iPad with it. That’s much easier than your phone and since my laptop is mostly for work, it keeps things separated.
This video was very helpful.

Thanks! Want to get one to make tshirts for my fam and me. You made this less overwhelming. Which machine do you recommend?

[DSLatte]

Thank U for your excellent video as I'm trying to learn before purchasing one.

Can you please tell me how I would type on an image before cutting it out?

I would like to make an invitation in the shape of a bowling ball for a banquet.

Thanks again!

I am actually thinking about buying the machine, but your response will be what decides my decision, so I would like to ask you if we can use it for gold foil or not

[erikaportillo]

Can you upload a logo/image you already have to cut out?

[RacingDLH]

You forgot to do how to calibrate, do you have a video about calibration for the maker 3 because i am having trouble

[marcus]

thank you had my maker 3 for 4 months never nessed eith because i wasnt sure if it needed blades or what i used printer paper like you did to get the hang of it now I'm starting to understand the whole concept so basically if it was vinyl i could of used it as a sticker or iron vinyl to iorn on to a shirt i have the hat iron kit as well but i wanna get the shirt one too and start experimenting, so i printed my name not in cursive so ots all individual letters would i normally get transfer paper to keep it all aligned or something

[pzydsfn]

How does it know to line it up when cutting it? Does it not have to be lined up to cut in one line? How do you know how big the paper you are cutting has to be?

[dlj]

You showed a dial to adjust the cut on a cricut Maker 3. Mine doesn't have a dial. Is the dial standard?

[andymyers]

Very helpful video, thank you, and a charming accent also, where in America do you hale from?

[brittniculbertson]

[jeromeandjeanholman]
