Yes she is clear and patient not running through it.

Another thing that I saw on tiktok and miraculously worked for me: scotch tape over the scanning sensor! Even with my lights off, the lid closed, and no other light nearby, if I ever used laminate or anything (even if I cut down and kept it inside the bounding margins) my cuts would ALWAYS ALWAYS be way off. Just sticking a small piece of tape right underneath the sensor so far has given me the most accurate and pain free calibration experience. I've also noticed the Explore line seems to have more calibration issues vs the Maker. Thank you for the video!

Love the way you explained step by step. Very clear instructions. Thank you so much. Look forward to learning more from you. Thank You

This is by far the best tutorial for design space I’ve seen. I’ve been struggling with this software app and now I’m seeing a light at the end of a very long tunnel. Thanks so much!

Corinne, I thoroughly enjoyed your tutorial! You explain everything clearly and step-by-step which makes it so easy to understand. I just "liked and subscribed" and look forward to learning more creative ways to use my Cricut Maker 3!

I'm new I would like to thank you for how you click on your cricut buttons on the canvas, you were the first teacher that I could actually see what I needed to click on my canvas.

Corinne, Thank you for your tutorial. I am a beginner and you explain step -by -step which makes it easy to understand. looking forward to more!

Hi Corinne, you saved my evening. I was so frustrated as I flattened every single image and it always ejected my mat. Also I struggled so much with not cutting the layer around but each single letter of the words 😞. Select all and flatten only once was the key!!! thanks so much! Best regards from Germany, Cathleen

Lol I live with hair on my mat! If you have some alcohol free baby wipes you can clean it with those but truly a little hair won’t hurt! Have fun with your new cricut and remember to be kind to yourself! It’s ok to make mistakes. It’s all part of learning

Great video. it was very helpful. I also have problems with the print then cut feature cutting my stickers out of alignment even after I have calibrated my machine. Sometimes it will cut correctly after I've calibrated it but the next day the calibration will be off again. I've even had Cricut support go through the calibration with me. According to Cricut support you have to make sure you don't have a lot of bright light around your Cricut machine because it can make it harder for the sensor to read the registration marks. I found that by lowering the lighting in the room it does help a little but it's definitely a software glitch and Cricut needs to fix it.

Great video, great job. My Cricut Maker was also having calibration issues - sometimes it would work well and then the next time the cut would be way off. After many attempts to calibrate both Cricut Maker and printer and after watching numerous videos, I learned that the lighting near the Cricut could affect the cut. My craft room is bright and I also have an overhead light near the machine . If I close the shutters and turn off the overhead light, I get an incredibly good cut. I’m assuming/guessing the natural light and overhead light bounce off the black registration marks making them obscure. On a very sunny day I’ll even go as far as to lay a large piece of poster board on top of the Cricut when it’s cutting. Hope this helps a bit. Keep up the good work.

It helped me. I remember a lady at a craft store talking to her another customer. She happened to be a cricut customer service agent. Lol I was hanging on to every word she said. She specifically said that of all calibrations attempts have failed, to focus on lighting. She said do not have daylight bulbs in area of the machine. It's greys out the black lines. And to be sure you aren't low on ink. Also, cheap printers are a problem as well. She said to stick with hp or Canon or possible and it needs to be one that is not under 100 bucks

Even though I’ve had my Cricut for a few years I always watch your videos for tips and tricks and I always pick up some bit of helpful information. My Cricut print then cut had not been working well at all even though I’ve recalibrated it, and it’s so frustrating. You go through all the trouble to design something, print it out, and have it cut terrible. It basically ruins your project if it’s for a gift and not for personal use. My husband works on machinery for a living and he suggested I clean the wheels and blow out any debris there may be in case my Cricut isn’t advancing the mat correctly(I didn’t think about it but of course their may be other reasons for a bad cut other than software issues). No such luck.Thanks for the videos!

The cricut will never fit the whole page. There are size limits when printing. They are adjusting those limits but it still will never fill the whole page. At this time the largest area you can use for print then cut on an 8.5x11 sheet is 6.75x9.25

Does lining up the page on the mat precisely have a lot to do with getting a perfect cut? I always thought it mostly followed the registration marks or rectangle. So I’m never exact on applying to the mat. Maybe that’s my problem!!! Where do you think that 6.75x9.25 number came from? What cut setting would you choose if you didn’t apply the laminate?

@CorinneBlackstone

2 жыл бұрын

It can help the machine cut more accurately. The size is due to where the sensors are on the cricut machine itself it allows for room for it to read the lines. And light cardstock without laminate but it depends on what you print on each sticker paper and printable vinyl will be different

Ever since the update made in DS for the maker, my Cricuts have not cut the same. I now have a border that makes my mat only cut up to 11.75 inches, and my Print & Cut is off, as I have to account for this 1/4 inch gap on the border. Is this something that can be fixed? I've owned all the Cricut machines and built my own pc. When I call Cricut for help, the agents don't understand, and only read off their canned messages..it's incredibly frustrating.

@PaintsandGlitter

2 жыл бұрын

I know that a full 12 inches is not possible, as I have owned all the cricuts even before DS existed, but I am referring to the fact that all items now have to fit into a border that is even smaller, making it impossible to cut up to the edge of the mat as it was possible before. This makes the concept of a 12 inch mat to be obsolete, and it should now have a thicker non-cutting border on the outside so as to indicate that your image must be less that 11.75". It also means that all items must be placed on the mat with a total of .25 inches in difference..again, this was not the case before the Maker was introduced.
