docdodj Posted August 16, 2021 Share Posted August 16, 2021 Thanks for adding me guys! I wanted to join to learn making my own masks. I haven't bought a cutter yet, on the fence between the portait or cricut joy, since they're the only ones available here in our country. Again thanks for adding me!

Kevin Futter Posted August 16, 2021 Share Posted August 16, 2021 Welcome aboard! I'd heartily recommend the Silhouette range over the Cricut models, just on the basis that the latter require you to use web-based software to run, and limit your projects to 20 per month.

Mozart Posted August 16, 2021 Share Posted August 16, 2021 Good to see you here, you'll not regret venturing into your own mask making! I'd echo Kev's comment about preferring Silhouette to Cricut, though I hold my hands up and confess that I haven't used, nor seen a Cricut in operation......however....to my knowledge ALL of the tips and advice on this forum at least concern work with either the Silhouette Portrait or Cameo machines. That for me would be good enough reason to opt for Silhouette. Max 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
denders Posted August 17, 2021 Share Posted August 17, 2021 Welcome! IIRC, Cricut requires you to work on line and save your files on line, not your computer. There were some rumblings a couple months ago about Cricut starting to require a subscription to do that too. I recall seeing something about Cricut backing off that to some to some degree. You should probably check into that before you purchase. Silhouette software does not require that. I have a Cameo 4 and save all my files on my computer.
