At the beginning of most handicraft projects there is an often-unloved process: the cutting of materials. For all those who prefer to get started right away, a cutting plotter is the ideal way to make the work easier. Because it extracts shapes faster and more precisely than a human could ever do. The Cricut Maker, which reichelt has now added to its product range, offers many opportunities to be creative.
Large selection of tools, numerous possibilities
The cutting plotter can handle over 300 different materials, so there are no limits to your creativity. For example, it cuts cardboard, vinyl foil, leather, fabric and balsa wood effortlessly. Instead of having to get the right tools for each material individually, the Cricut Maker gives you everything in one tool.
The brand offers the widest range of tools on the market to cut, fold, mark or decorate a wide variety of materials. Included in the delivery is a roller blade for precise cutting of cotton, fleece, denim or other fabrics. Other fabric projects can be realized with the Cricut EasyPress 2 transfer press, also available from reichelt. It can be used to quickly and safely apply iron-on film blanks to T-shirts, cushions, sweaters, and many other substrates. The motifs are durable even when machine washed.For more complicated shapes and medium-thick materials, it is best to choose the fine-cut blade, which is also included in the delivery. Additionally available are various other tools like folding wheels, perforating blades, engraving tips, pens and many more. The change is done within seconds, the new head is simply attached.
Extensive pattern library and easy operation

This includes 50 ready-to-use projects that show what the vinyl cutter can do and are ideal for a quick start.Devices are wirelessly connected to the cutting plotter via Bluetooth. Edit your designs in the intuitive, user-friendly Design Space® software. It’s available for iOS, Android, Windows and Mac and can also be used in offline mode.
