How-Tuesday: Kirigami with the Craft ROBO

The Craft ROBO is a machine that lets you cut and score paper with precision and repetition. This is really handy if you're into scrapbooking or want to make shipping boxes, envelopes or promos for your Etsy shop. Perhaps you want to take it to the next level to create unique paper sculptures, pop-up books or custom vinyl stickers.

What is the "best" site for some Craft Robo forums? I just got one and there is so much that is confusing me about it!

With this video, what are they printing on? It seems to be just paper but when i put it on the sticky sheet, it basically rips and tears when taking it off. I cant see how this sticky sheet is good for anything if you cant take anything off of it in one piece. Its only been one day and I am very frustrated with the lack of info but Im trying to not give up yet

@emoldure Depending on the software you use you have to tell the software what cut function you want linked to what color (Robomaster) or in Silhouette Studio everything is default to cut, and the other functions you choose in the cut style window (in this function color is not linked to a certain function, but you have to decide for each line wether you want it to be cut or not and how you want it to be cut).

There are a lot of steps missing - This is an overview but not a detailed step by step. Does anyone know where to find a detailed step by step guide to cutting, score lines, Perf scores, and cuts?

@VintageSky The Craft ROBO doesn't require Illustrator. It comes with its own lame software for the PC. But it *can* use Illustrator, and therefore is infinitely more flexible.
