[Video]How to Use Custom Settings on Cricut Explore Design Space

The new Cricut Explore makes cutting different materials a cinch with this dial!

But, what if you want to cut a different material like felt, leather, metal, or vellum?  Or what if you want to create your own custom setting?

Well, you can!  See the video below on how to do it - it's really easy.  I created a setting for intricate designs in the video and now it's saved - so I can use it over and over!

Watch the video below (or click HERE if you can't see it):

  1. Wonderful. I cut glitter cardstock and when I cut a word/phrase it tears sometimes. I adjust the blade from 6 to 5 and it cuts ok then.

  17. I"m sure I'm in the minority - but I don't really cut other materials - I can't even keep up with my paper projects!

  20. My Explore is scheduled to arrive today and I cannot decide which material to try first. I am quite certain it will be paper since that is what I have on-hand and it does not require much preparation, but I think fabric won't be too far behind. Thanks again to sharing what you have learned with us so we can get to creating a little faster.

I have tried Material on the expression but is it is a hit or miss. I can't wait to see how the new machines cuts all the different materials I have been dying o try. Love all your videos as they have been a great learning experience.
