Ever Wonder What the RONT Stands for in HTV RONT?
I just discovered what HTVRONT stands for. ? HTV, Really outstanding, Never temporary! I have not tried the HTVRONT vinyl yet, because when I purchased my Cricut Maker 3 I also purchased the Smart Materials Everything Bundle. Some of the people I’m in a Facebook group with say it’s great, though. Once I get through […]
My Lapse in Common Sense
Logic Problem Faydra has a Cricut die cutting machine, a paper trimmer and a printer that prints borderless up to 13″ x 19″. She has a 10″ x10″ piece of basswood for her puzzle board, and she wants her image to also be 10″ x 10″ to cover her puzzle board. She has a 12″ […]
Cutting a Puzzle on Basswood with the Cricut Maker 3
I got this basswood (10″x10″) from Michaels today and went ahead and gave it a go. It cut like a hot knife blade through butter using the default Cricut setting for 1/16th Basswood. No need for added pressure and no need for more passes after the 14 in the Cricut material preset. I got 11 […]

Playing with Shapes in Cricut Design Space: Crayon or Fire Hydrant?
I fiddled around some more with free shapes in Cricut Design Space, and I made this crayon. I also realized I can rotate it counter-clockwise, make the left part shorter (which would become the bottom) and it could be a fire hydrant. ? For anyone who’s wondering why I’m doing all this fiddling when I […]
Playing with Shapes in Cricut Design Space: Cartoon Tree
I fiddled some more with shapes and welding and came up with this little tree. ? My next move with this little tree is to put it in a scene with other trees and objects. One of the people I’m in a Facebook group with asked me to create a video of the process…
