BE CAREFUL, This is not Acrylic. Acrylic is harder and more brittle. This is PETG. I'm selling acrylic and you need a laser cutting machine to cut it. Even the thinnest acrylic won't work on Cricut.

Because Cricut cannot cut Acrylic. The thin sheets used in the video are PETG and not PMMA. The 1mm thin sheet is actual acrylic and that's why it's not working.

@@AngieHolden Laser engravers / cutters use low resolution for cutting wood because wood fibers are spaced apart. acrylic is not. using wood settings on plastic is generally not recommended for any cutting device.

This is awesome! My fiancè has a criqut and I have a 3d printer. I've been building a light bar that needs to use acrylic sheets and have been scoring it manually with an exacto knife and then cracking it into the size I need.. it is a PAIN. She mentioned we should try her Cricut. I can't wait to try this out to cut the exact dimensions I am looking for. Thanks so much!

I successfully cut a 2mm thick piece of acrylic using the knife blade on the "Heavy Chipboard" setting. This cuts 24 times and cut it 3 more times. This scores the acrylic enough to be able to break it apart by hand by placing it on the table with the larger side hanging over the table, holding it down firmly, with the score line right at the table edge and then pushing down. This should make a clean break. Not sure how well this will work on curved pieces, but I had good success with straight lines

Great vid...very informative!!! Based on how I’ve seen people use and cut thicker acrylics and plastics by hand, a lot of times they score it with an X-Acto knife and then break it at the score line to get the shape they want. Have you tried to use the cricket to score the plastic and then cut off any excess with straight edges and then break off the cut pieces from the score lines? I’m not sure if I’m explaining it correctly but I may try it and if it works I will let you know.

Thank you for your input however just some suggestions - first the material thickness should be expressed as twenty thousandths - not “ oh two oh” next if you need thicker items or stencils simply cut additional ones and stack them together - there are various adhesives that can be used with acrylic.

I actually have a degree in engineering so there is no need to explain that however, most people do not understand twenty thousandths so it is best to put this in a way they can understand for this particular KZfaq channel.

I usually start with the basswood setting and watch it to see how many passes it takes.

How do get them colored like gold or something? Can you use them to make cake toppers?

I have seen some colored versions out there. And yes they would make great cake toppers!

How about using the deep cut blade? Will that cut the thicker acrylic?
@AngieHolden
@AngieHolden 3 жыл бұрын
No. I am using the deepest blade which is the knife point blade. This is as thick as I was able to cut.

which one would you recommend more the 0.02 or the .07?
@AngieHolden
@AngieHolden Жыл бұрын
The thinner you get the more likely you can cut through but it is more flimsy. So it probably depends on the project.

Hi Angie, thanks for doing this! Have you tried 5 mil and 10 mil laminate? I just can't get it to cut! I'd appreciate your help. Thanks in advance!

Hi! I need some help with troubleshooting! I bought the exact craft plastic (0.020) you used and followed everything you did, but my knife blade isn't cutting all the way through even if I do extra passes. My knife blade is brand new. Please help me figure out what I'm doing wrong!

The settings may have changed since this video is several years old. You may have to pick a different setting on your Cricut.

I tried this today with the acrylic you recommended but I cannot find a basswood setting on my Maker. I’ve seen that setting on other videos but it is not listed in my materials. Any ideas? Thanks for any help!

Are you on computer? It won't be on mobile. Also if you have anything in your design like engraving or writing, it will also not be there.

Looking for something gold that’s sturdier than cardstock. Can we do gold acrylic like products? Need some suggestions.

Can you just make several layers of cardstock to make it sturdier?

Thicker acrylic is going to be a Glowforge as far as I know.

if you make fonts on the acryclic 020 using the marker within the cricut machine, does it smudge or do you reccomend another tool to write?
@AngieHolden
@AngieHolden Жыл бұрын
You would have to use a permanent marker then it might work? I have never tried it.
