    1:49 tape the foil down with washi tape as smooth as possible
    3:08 make sure to not allow the foil to touch the mat
    3:50 use the USB port of your machine?
    5:18 materials
    6:15 any heat reactive foil works

    It isn't limited to materials/surfaces that are smooth. It can be used on wood and leather with zero issues.

    I always keep a USB 2.0 Extension Cable - A-Male to A-Female Adapter Cord - 1 foot on every usb I use. Normally a devices usb goes bad with repeated connect and disconnection of thumb drives and other devices. I have repaired many USB ports because the internal connection has become loose. The repair or replacement is itself easy, but getting to the motherboard can be a pain. For example I have to remove a laptops screen to access the motherboard. Save yourself money and aggravation by using an extension cable for any usb port you use on a regular basis.

    Hi, if I use vellum, should put it on the light mat? Because I just got a new cricut and the foil quill. Thanks

    • @MakersGonnaLearn
      @MakersGonnaLearn  Před 5 lety

      Yes vellum is very delicate. Use the LightGrip mat, don't use more pressure or fast mode either. Happy crafting!

    Hello! Thank you so much for the video! I just got my quill pen and was wondering if there was a way to get the quill to fill in letters to make a solid foil letter? For example, the card in front of you in this video, would it be possible to print the word "LORD," or "TODAY" in solid foil rather than just the outline?

    • @olaukaszewska7061
      @olaukaszewska7061 Před 3 lety +1

      Yes - at least in Silhouette Studio. While in DESIGN mode, go to "Line effect panel" and try filling the letters (you'll find several options there). It may help to create the outlines of the letters first.

      @@MakersGonnaLearn Y'all really need to communicate more. In this video you state that you can use vellum. Seriously, your credibility is valuable, and with you contradicting your own videos it seems like you don't have a clue what's going on.

    • @hiperkid411
      @hiperkid411 Před 5 lety +3

      I have done it- It's not THAT hot. It's just warm, unless you touch the actual tip. I will say try it! It's fun! I learned that a lot of pressure didn't get me the best results, but when I lightly pressed over the foil, I had amazing results. The hardest part is not being able to see where you are pressing because the shell around it comes down quite a bit.

    • @hiperkid411
      @hiperkid411 Před 5 lety +3

      Denise, I've thought about it myself. I just wonder how much the foil sheet can handle since that could potentially be really hot and it's plasticy. I would try it on a crap piece of wood at a low temp first and work your way up. I REALLY want to know your results so share if you can.

    • @kimwarren3347
      @kimwarren3347 Před 5 lety +2

      That’s interesting! Thanks for sharing and now you’ve given me an idea to try my wood burner first. I have one that is low temp as well and maybe if I lay a piece of Teflon down, it may work even better. Could draw a copy of the design and transfer it with chalk onto the Teflon, taping each layer so they don’t move. Worth a try. If not, I’ll be giving this a try. Thanks again for sharing info!
