Provo Craft & Novelty, Inc. operates as Cricut®, a manufacturer in personal electronic cutting machines based in South Jordan, Utah.
The Cricut Explore® family of machines represents their most technologically advanced. The Explore is a sleek white pod roughly the size and shape of a printer [2] If you want to add a level of computer precision to your crafts and small projects, the Cricut Explore could be a valuable addition to toolset. [3]
The Cricut Explore started for scrapbooking, but is clearly branching out to appeal to home décor, DIY fashion, parties and events. [4] But rather than an ink cartridge, the cube houses a small precision-cutting blade that chisels your chosen design — flowers, stars, even 8-bit text, for gaming nerds — out of whatever material you choose. [5]
The Cricut Explore can cut through a wide range of materials of varying thickness. [6] They have the power to cut, write or draw on, and score over 60 different materials.
Cricut created a “Smart Set Dial,” which allows users to precisely cut project materials in one easy step – including card stock, vinyl, fabric, iron on materials, cardboard. You don’t have to adjust pressure, depth or speed – the technology handles it all on behalf of the user. [7]
Cricut offers a ton of project ideas complete with instructions, difficulty, and a list of supplies and fonts/templates/images you’ll need. [8]
Cricut offers a line of supplies and consumables to provide users with needs from start to finish—from personal design concept to assembly. Elegant and fluid, the company clearly spends a lot of time thinking about the small things that consumers care about, such as, how it feels and sounds. For example, it is so quiet you can barely hear the device as it moves back and forth across material cutting, scoring, or writing. [9]
The folks at Cricut, the crafting pros and creator of an industry-leading design-and-cut machine, say that their cutting machines are suitable for young kids with adult supervision. And since the digital software and the machine are set up for a novice or pro, kids can create and use their imagination easily. [10]

Counts of types of cuttable materials are given, however I see no list of materials or indication of how fast or other limitations. This begs the questions:
1. Where can such a list be found?
2. Does "paper" appear once, or is it "paper, construction paper, tissue paper, blue paper, pink paper, ..."?
3. What are the practical limitations on cutting e.g. the mentioned "basswood"? How do you keep it from shifting during cutting? How many passes at how many inches/sec to slice a 1/16" sheet or what? How thick of wood could be cut, I assume it won't handle 1/4" thick and up. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 24.16.88.201 ( talk) 16:56, 20 February 2021 (UTC)
