Tip for you. Weed right to left when doing words because most open letters like e and c open on the right side. This way the inside of the letter comes out easier.
Thank you! Used your exacto-knife trick to make this weeding easier this evening. Will add cut lines in the DS next time. Hadn’t thought of that so thanks for the spark! Jeremy Studio 34 Design
Hi Great video and tips. Any thoughts for weeding small font script etc. where the squeege may not work? My little tiny snowflakes are not cutting or weeding well. Thanks so much!!!!
Would love to know where you bought your weeding pick tool? Sorry I know your video is very a year old but I just started following you and saw the weeding tool. Thank you
Thank you for video. I LOVE WEEDING.love your tip for the letter " i ". The dot was being a pain for me, now I see how you got it down. TY. And using you scrapper to hold the group down at one time is helpful too. Do you ever burnish your cut down before weeding? I have and it helps with things lifting... except the i. Lol not always. Good luck with your venture, you did great with video. Thanks again.
I'm new to making cricut vinyl labels and I'm wondering where you bought your weeding tool from? I'm also wondering how your Letters are already outlined in rectangles in this particular video? Did you score them with the cricket 1st? I'm working on vinyl labels for my candle vessels and a Font I'm using is very delicate and having a few problems with the font sticking to the backing. Seems like the blade is doing a good job at cutting on a vinyl but it's me weeding at that seems to be pulling all the fonts off. Thank you for this video. Its very helpful!!
Thank you!! It was actually from a tool kit I got years ago from Costco! I haven't looked around to see if there's anything similar. I don't use a cricut. I use larger cutters and the software that comes with them which add the weeding lines around the graphic. Even if the blade is cutting the vinyl ok but you're having issues with weeding, it is still a blade and/or pressure issue. Make the sure the blade is at the right depth and that its a sharp blade. Mess around with your settings and do lots of small test cuts to get it just right - it's worth that time tweaking it perfectly because it makes the weeding process SO much easier and faster!
Im trying to print reallllly small like 8pt font using font athelas to press on a "neck label" so its about 1.5 inche tall and 3 inches width, do you suggest this? I think its definitely way smaller then the font youre using. Help?
Hi, I use the Neenah Jet Opaque 2 HTV paper and with the settings I have it doesnt weed well and takes lot of work, I use blade level 3, force 8 and speed 3 how can I make this process easier?
For individual personal projects, reverse weeding could be better and faster. However I make decals for sale for others to us. so to not have the backing paper and needing to reapply it doesn’t make much sense. As long as you have correct cutter settings, small decals can be weed just as quick as reverse weeding in my opinion :)
You are actually weeding wrong. Always weed in to the character. i.e weed text from right to left and numbers from left to right…try it. Put weed boarders around text and numbers separately. Been weeding since 1996 ❤

What brand of permanent Vinyl do you use?
I’m curious as well, when I pull mine they won’t stick
My vinyl will flake off and roll in on itself while it’s cutting small details 😢any idea how to prevent this?
Thank you
how do u edit a desing with a lot of shading
Hi how can I make my own phrases on vinyl before weeding? Do ppl use stencils over the vinyl to cut? Thank you!
You can use a vector program, the cutting software, or purchase designs and cut them with a vinyl cutter.
Hi! I found this video so helpful. I am wondering how you in design space you add the boarder to cut out the square that helps you with your weeding??
My cutting program adds that for me as a weeding line. You could also make it on a design program yourself as a stroke line
I was wondering that too!

Yeah it’s doable! As long as your cut settings and blade are good, you shouldn’t have a problem!
What fonts are these?
Yell orcal brand always does that not strong enough gotta find a better brand n their transfer tape is no good either
Where did u get your squiggie tool?
Yes! I’d love to know also!
Hi, I use the Neenah Jet Opaque 2 HTV paper and with the settings I have it doesnt weed well and takes lot of work, I use blade level 3, force 8 and speed 3 how can I make this process easier?
Should I put the blade level up or the force?
is it not cutting through the htv very well? if that's the case, you'll need to mess with the blade level and/or force.
@@athomepixels I figured it out, the blade wasnt locked in
Why don´t you do reverse weeding? It´s so much easier and the i dots will stay.
For individual personal projects, reverse weeding could be better and faster. However I make decals for sale for others to us. so to not have the backing paper and needing to reapply it doesn’t make much sense. As long as you have correct cutter settings, small decals can be weed just as quick as reverse weeding in my opinion :)
@@athomepixels Thanks for the answer. For me it´s just a hobby, so I don´t do many of the same motives at one time.
