I honestly thought when rule #10 popped up that you were going to say something about never sleeping again because omg omg omg omg so much stuff to make!!! ;-)
I appreciate your video. Its great to see a video that is to the point! I hate sitting around listening to stories about your kids blah blah blah this was really refreshing!!!
I am so glad I watched this before using my knife blade. I have only had my Maker for a couple of weeks but I am loving it so far!!!
Thanku so much for making it short and simple. I swear most videos just lag on!
OMG This is SO Exciting and Spectacular!! Thanks for you Outstanding Tutorial and sharing your Tremendously Terrific Tips, Tricks & Techniques!!!! Can’t wait to get it!! YOU SO ROCK!!
I ORDERED MINE. AS I SPEAK!!!!! WOOO HOOOO
Joan Smith
thank you thank you thank you!! by far you were the most helpful to me
I can't wait to buy the maker!! There are so many projects I want to do with this machine. Can't wait to see what else you guys come out with.
As of August 13 2019 is the design space app compatible with the knife blade
Glad I found this video. Just received cricut maker for Christmas, and could not figure out why iOS app on iPad kept stating no blade detected!! When will the app be compatible?? Computer is too far from craft room to move cricut back and forth from one room to the other across the house. :(
Hi, thanks for the great instructions.
Is the blade rotated freely on it's axis or is it rotated by software?
What is the maximum thickness of wood that you can use. eg. Can you cut 3mm ply wood?
if so, how and what setting do you use? as there is no option for Plywood on the list. thanks
why does it take so long to cut balsa wood i been recutting on my cricut for the last 3 hours and its still not cut through?
I really hope I can get some help, does anyone know if I used this on skateboard grip tape if it would cause any problems?? I wouldn't cut grip side up but the grip unpeeled side up. If anyone knows or has any thoughts please let me know
I need help. I have had to return two cricut machines from my supplier because the housing for the knife blade has stopped working after calibration. I am so disappointed as I really love using my machine but as I cannot use the knife blade I am not able to complete some of the craft projects.
SERIOUSLY I AGREE WITH THE COMMENT BELOW I PURCHASED IPAD PRO TO USE WITH THE CRICUT . THE OTHER DAY I WAS SO CONFUSE TO WHAT WAS GOING ON. PLUS I AM A MEMBER AND IT WAS GOING TO CHARGE ME FOR THINGS I SHOULD NOT HAVE TO PAY . I PAID 129.00 MEMBERSHIP FEE ????
Hi, I'm trying to calibrate my knife blade with my Air 2. When I select "Calibrate" on the software, I only get the option to calibrate the machine. No blades. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks.
You cannot use the knife blade with the Air 2; only with Maker
@@seruhrose6724 Thanks. I unfortunately discovered that yesterday. Oh, well. I was able to return it to Jo Ann's.
Every time I will make a deep cut project I need to calibrate?
I will be working with soft wood planks and a variety of wood veneers, and may occasionally work on materials such as particle board or other compressed-wood-chip boards. What is the manufacturers recommended maximum thickness range that the Cricut Maker will cut?
Also, besides wood, what other materials would Cricut recommend the Knife Blade be used for? Thank you for the tutorials.
You can find the recommended thicknesses for the knife blade here: help.cricut.com/help/machines/cricut-maker/accessories
You can cut leather, chipboard, craft board and other materials that we probably haven't even tried yet. I hope this helps.
wish we could get/use that blade for the cricut explore air or explore air 2
i can not find a knife blade, only deep point blades and my maker does not accept that as a knife...can you help?
I just received my new cricut maker and I have calibrated the knife blade and it doesn’t follow the lines when cutting the multiple times. I recalibrated the blade, taped as instructed. Started project over...SAME THING!!! Did not follow cut lines with multiple passes. PLEASE HELP!!!
Hello, I am also having this same issue. I have calibrated the knife blade probably 10 times and it does not follow the same cuts. I have even tried different thickness wood. Did your issue ever get resolved? If so, how. Thank you in advance
Can it cut plexiglass /thicker acrylic
Can the knife blade cut 10mm mylar for a stencil?
1:27 I’m sorry I’m new here but, when are we doing this? And it’s all of the little white plastics? Also, do we need to worry about properly placing them back? I’m a bit confused 🫤 nvm this is 5 years old: I’m sure they fix EVERYTHING bad in here 👍
Will it work with a chromebook?
Helpppppp!!!! Mine is cutting but u can’t peel the letters out, what can I do?
Will it cut 1/8” balsa wood? If not, what is the max width it will cut?
It doesn't cut 1/8". You can see all of the cut materials and specs here: help.cricut.com/knife-blade-faq I hope this helps.
What blade do i use for faux leather?
Can u embroidery on iron on Vinyl
Where have you been???? I miss the What's New videos!
Which thickness tooling leather can this machine handle?
We have a list of materials and thicknesses that the Knife Blade can cut here: help.cricut.com/hc/en-us/articles/360009557073-Cricut-Maker-Knife-Blade-FAQ I would refer to this list often because new materials are being qualified all the time and the list will be updated. I hope this answers your question.
It would be nice as this is an official video if they coul have responded to my post I put up two months ago.
I can’t get it to work in my maker 3 please advise
Hi Michelle! Can you send us a message on help.cricut.com so we can get this fixed for you?💚
Where can I buy the cartridge for the older models ?
You can purchase cartridges on Cricut.com
I just opened mine out of the box today , it won’t calibrate as it’s not detecting the blade. 😩😩😩😩😩
Oh no! I am so sorry to hear that. Give our Member Care team a call and they will get it fixed for ya! help.cricut.com/hc/en-us/articles/360020316674-Cricut-Contact-Information

When will it be available?
10... 9... 8... 7... 6... 5... 4... 3... 2... 1... NOW!
Official Cricut Yayyyyy!!

You should also add that you are unable to customize the setting of knife blade materials or make a custom preset, this is locked out for any knife blade settings, and this limits any creativity you may want for a crafting machine. The blades dull really fast because you are usually cutting harder materials like chipboard, wood, and leather. You cannot buy replacement blades for this housing without buying the replacement knife blade kit. Depending on where you are the replacement kits cost upwards of 24 dollars for not many cuts, not to mention how environmentally unfriendly it is for just 1 replacement blade. Why would I need a safety changing cap with each blade replacement, just plain silly.
Could have mentioned that it wouldn’t work with an iPad. I wouldn’t have wasted my money. Already had the next older model. Bought this expressly for cutting thicker materials. Then no blade for...forever. And now can’t use iPad. I’m thoroughly disgusted!
Lindy Lund but I predict that’s just today. Normally, Cricut adds the functionality to other devices later.
Quit whining and use the computer you know you have.
Didn’t she say it wouldn’t work with an iOS device? That is an iPad.
Nkosi K. Akinlabi guess you don’t know what an iOS device is. What system do you think an iPad operates on? Smh
Karen Cash I have 3 macs, 3 iPads and 2 iPods. Do you really think I don’t know what system they all operate on?
Again, iPad users left out...
Wha. Complain to Apple for not making a device that can handle applications that PC's do.
And then the tape takes off your purple sticky material on the very first use.
That shouldn't happen. Please contact our Member Care team at 1.877.7Cricut and they will take care of you.
Official Cricut thank you! I figured it was not supposed to happen. But it sure did keep my leather in place for an awesome cut.
I don't think you have enough dog hair on your mat.
I have bought two books on cricut maker 3. They are the worst books I have ever bought. The organisation and English used is appalling. No logic to the books. Nothing is explained clearly.
Hey John! So sorry about that experience? Were they books from us? We recently launched Cricut Learn which has many of the basics to get started with your new Maker 3 machine. Check it out here: learn.cricut.com
