Gotta new toy! This is a Cricut Maker cutting machine. It looks like a printer and operates similarly. It can cut 100's of different materials from tissue paper up to 3/32 balsa wood! I just whipped out a 409 vinyl decal and it's AWESOME!!! While it does many things I won't use it for (I'm not an arts & crafts person) but... I can make custom T shirts, decals, stencils, make my own gaskets and it can even engrave metal and make templates to etch glass. (and many, many more things...)
Some plans I have that should be do-able;
Engrave the shift patterns for my Jeep shifter knob inserts (how this whole idea came to be)
Make racing stickers for my garage wall. lol
Make various auto decals such as air cleaner, valve cover, under hood warning, etc.
engraving data plates, dash plaques, etc. Maybe now I can re-do those aluminum data plates the wrecker had that were too poor to restore.
cutting gaskets of almost any type
making a re-usable acetate template so I can paint the words on an oil filter cannister. (sort of like original, they were silk screened)
make vinyl letters for the tail gates on my trucks. (just bought a set for $8.95, now I can make my own and even start selling them)
make custom T shirts, coffee mugs, etc for the website or various ones to sell on ebay.
That's just a start. So many things I haven't even thought of yet. This thing is really amazing! More to come...
