Reply to "Cricut Maker 3 for cutting 1/16 Basswood Walls"

Thanks Alan - Though I procured this primarily for basswood but I am going to try some 80 mil styrene this week. I see no reason why it should not work. If it does work it could come in handy for complex dual angles (like a roof line that changes slope mid way).
I am also going to try the 'print and cut' option on card stock. One can load designs like bill board signs into the design space, size and move them around then hit a 'print and cut ' icon. Design space instructs your printer to print the sheet then you load it into the cutter and press 'go' to cut out each individual sign. When the sheet is printed a perimeter border is auto printed. The machine aligns the cutter head to the border with a laser to register the position of the signs and then cuts. I'm looking at complex signs with a lot of curves.

Only issue so far is that any material on the 'materials' list that uses the knife blade can not be edited (change number of cuts of pressure). I also can not make a new material for the list and specify the knife blade. All I got from Cricut was 'those options don't exist at this time'.
