  1. Ich hab letztens Holzfurnier für meinen Plotter gekauft und heute ausprobiert. Herausgekommen ist ein Lesezeichen mit Honigwaben und einer goldenen Biene aus Vinyl. Leider kann der Plotter keine Romane plotten. 🤪 #CricutMaker4 #Cricut #plotter

  2. Here are my home made stickers.
    I made:
    - some grumpy Jussi-cats, looking majestic and fluffy.
    - my Otso the Bear King linocut
    - the Spinner logo
    - a cicada from last year's October #Crawltober challenge
    - Moominzilla
    - a snail from last year's October challenge.

  3. Not only did I can for the first time ever, but I made kiwi jam and kosher style dill green tomato pickles. I also made canning labels with my Cricut and inkjet printer with print then cut.

    Am so excited!!

  4. My latest #Cricut card, a work in progress. I used #cardstock and images from a calendar from Dollar Tree.

    The art of cards is far too lost. I don't sell my designs (YET) but find someone who does and grab a handmade card for a loved one SOON!!

  5. If you, like me, are trying to use a #Gorton family single-stroke typeface with a #Glowforge laser cutter (or a #CNC machine or a #Cricut or whatever), and you'd like an easy way to do type layout while keeping everything in the single-stroke vector space, it turns out there is a solution for that (!!): https://msurguy.github.io/cnc-text-tool/

    If all of the above is gibberish but you're curious, basically, here's the thing:

    - most vector drawing tools (I use #AffinityDesigner) will happily open & use TrueType or OpenType fonts, but their model of a "font" is typically "a closed outline stroke with a fill"
    - things like laser cutters and CNC machines love paths/strokes, but they don't grok "fill" (or, in the case of modern laser cutters, they do, but it's finicky and you have to do a lot of trial-and-error tweaking to get the stroke & the fill working together so that the type renders like you want it to)
    - there are quite a few sources for single-path SVGs of classic engraving fonts (including Fedi's favorite, #Gorton) but if you want to actually lay out words instead of single characters . . . lotta manual work
    - the web application I linked above solves **this specific problem** by letting you do text layout, and then it outputs a single SVG that you can import into your CNC software or into your vector drawing software for integration into your designs
  6. Nothing quite like switching out your old gross Cricut cutting mat for a new one, until you remember how difficult it is peeling stickers off a new one lmao

  14. Hej! 👋

    I've moved severs so that calls for a new #Intro!

    My name is @christian and this is my design project.

    I like to use computer design to help me create digital and physical pieces.

    My current interest is with paper, shadow, and light. ( Though I'd love to work with 3D printing and wood one day 🙏 )
