I have an intricate design I want to make as stencil on vinyl. Can you suggest settings, etc. for this project? I want to do glass etching on votive candle glasses. My design measures 4.25" wide by 1.25" high. If necessary, do I change the size within the project itself or on the cricut?
@ozegran I'm not sure of the exact thickness, but I would say a lightweight chipboard would word. I also use poster board too. they work great. Hugs, C

Hi Christina, what would be the thickest size chipboard you could safely use in the cricut machine using the deep-cut blade?

Yes, you can use the regular blade housing. The deep cut blades fit. :) Good video. Thanks for sharing your ideas.

Thanks for the video. Do you need the housing for the deep blade or can you just buy the blades and use the same housing that you already have?

I just realized that I cut the Grey board it seems to be much thicker Is that the problem Have you tried to cut that color yet?

The grey board is much much thicker. Did you buy the package that has the grey, white and black? Try the white, and cut at 3 x's.
