THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR DOING THIS VIDEO!! I just got this cutter and I’m so new to all of this! You just saved me so much time! Now can you help me some more and do a video on the software on this machine? Thank you much again from Texas! God bless you! By Felicia!! 🥰🙏🏼💓
@@craftwithfelicia I will certainly appreciate them. I you have a new subscriber for sure. You are awesome! Kind regards and blessings from El Paso Texas. 🥰🙏🏼💜
Great video. Thanks, so much. I did not get the pen, the sample sheet. Waiting until I settle in to my winter digs to really delve into this new hobby.
10:39 we are 110% new with cutting machines and still haven't tried our new loklik because we cannot find anywhere if we need to remove the plastic from the mat or not... Would have been nice if that was mentioned in the sparse manual. But I guess you put the plastic sheet back on the mat after you're finished?
Thank you so much I just got my machine today and the manual was less than helpful! I’m looking forward to starting fresh tomorrow after watching this video. 😊
Thank you for making this video. It helped a lot. I do agree that the instruction manual is not great. I have one question and that is can you print with the machine or just cut with it?
Thanks for this video. I am new to cutting machine. I bought this since this is in sale and my budget fits its price. 😅, I think for Basic cuts it does the Job Well and for a beginner like me it is useful for it's price. More tutorial videos please.
Hey there, cutting machine newbie! I'm thrilled to hear that the machine is doing the job well for your basic cuts. It's always a win when you find a budget-friendly option that gets the job done. More tutorial videos are coming your way, so stay tuned!
I don't know if Silhouette Studio can talk to it but I know Sure Cuts A Lot can. Check this video out - ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-YiASRT8EyNA.htmlsi=BKt2fG2QbYEXi8IO
@craftwithfelicia I just went and bought me a silhouette portrait 3 last night about to see what it do but I've been using silhouette studioes for a year now so we good
Hi and thank you for this video! You two are great! 😅 This was an enjoyable tutorial and I bought the LOKLIK crafter and have been happy with it. I am having an issue and want to know if you have encountered the same thing...I am unable to cut anything larger than 12 inches. I bought the HTVRONT 12 x 24 cutting mat. My design is 9 x 15 but when I click "make" it reduces the design to fit a 12 x 12 mat. Then I choose from drop downs for cutting pad and materials the 12 x 24 size but it doesn't revert to the size I made it. I'm on the 2.0 version of IdeaStudio and connected by USB. I have contacted their customer support team and so far we have emailed back and forth 6 times! 😮 They asked for a video which I made however their software will not allow attachments larger than 25MB total. Can you do a tutorial on cutting a design larger than 12 inches? For Windows and on 2.0 version? Thank you so much for how fantastic you both are!
Laser copy paper. I have found that when I print the calibration sheet on my laser printer, LOKLiK sometimes has a hard time reading the registration lines. I have had better success when I print it on my ink jet printer.
It is functional, but there is a known issue with calibration. LOKLiK is working on a solution. We definitely gave it a good try. Here's our results - ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-KQlOuerVZsU.htmlsi=DaUM0Nx9-Je1c5S2.
Hi guys, looking at getting this for my girlfriend for Christmas. Can you import your own images into ideal studio or are you limited with their designs? Thanks.
I need to know if this cutter will cut svg rhinestone templates? I have failed to get answer from loklik and 6 other creators. I want to take my business up a notch but rhinestones are a must.
I used Silhouette Studio Business Edition to create a rhinestone design and exported it as a svg file. That worked as expected. When I uploaded the image into LOKLiKs software, it brought it in very small. I tried adjusting it and could probably get it close but it’s not straightforward. It is possible but I’d have to do further testing to figure out sizing. When I spoke to LOKLiK at CES, I did have rhinestones on the list of enhancement ideas I shared with them. Don’t know if it will be incorporated, but they said the next big software release is scheduled June 2024. This video shows how I used Silhouette Studio to create a rhinestone design and cut it in Cricut - ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-TTNEWNcE3XM.htmlsi=JT58bJ30sUayzVNt.
Where do I find the guild you showed for different vinyl? As a beginner I am scared to ise other vinyl with my loklik machine because I don't know the settings.
The software is free and the company is making updates to it all the time so new features are getting added frequently. Design Space is more advanced since it’s been around longer but LOKLiKs giving them a run for their money. It takes some getting used to LOKLiKs software if you’re coming from Cricut though.
Hi lm new to all this, but lve create some designs using procreate and want to now buy a cutting machine to create stickers ect, can l use my own designs with the LOKLiK or do l have to use there software to design? 🤔😊 Thankyou Claire
I have just bought this cutter and realised the mat is too short for the work I need to do (Around 20" long. Is there any means to cut in a sort of "Poster" mode off the roll?
According to the LOKLiK website you can use smart materials with the Crafter machine - www.loklik.com/app-help/detail?id=1684840145490071554. I haven’t tried it.
Interested in a device that could cut out playing cards out of 300GSM cardstock, do you think this one could do it? And if so, would I have to leave a spare inbetween each one?
It could definitely cut 300GSM perfectly. The hangup right now is getting proper alignment with Print and Cut, and only if you're not printing full bleed with a healthy margin on all sides. LOKLiK is working on this feverishly and they'll nail it soon.
@@craftwithfelicia uh o, wish I hadn't impulse bought it last night. My plan was to print some cards in a specific location via PDF then align the locations on the LOKlik app. Would this work, or is it going to just cut wildly off? Will have to replace with cricut maker 2 if so =/ Sorry brand new to this and need to know if I should return the LOKlik when it arrives
Yes you can! It cuts cardstock up to 100 lb I believe. We don't believe there is a scoring tool, but there are other scoring tools on the market. Video soon!
Anyone noticed the cutting Parameters are no longer accurate since updating the application? Circuit vinyl used to cut fine with 375 force but now it doesn't seem to cut through so requires a higher cutting force. Not sure if its just a issue I'm facing or if its for everyone
I haven't cut vinyl since the update so I'm not sure how to help. Try reaching out to their support - support@loklik.com. There's also a Facebook group that may be able to help - facebook.com/groups/6770205346369071/
Thanks for the video - all I want is for cutting thicker card or even board and I create my own designs using Adobe illustrator - does anyone know if this machine will accept externally produced SVG files please? And how it it for cutting thicker card? I've been looking at the Maker 3 as that can cut think wood boards.
Can you do a demo in how to use the text function using a cursive font. It won't let me weld letters together so cuts each letter overlapping the other
LOKLiK is new to the market compared to other cutting machines. Which one is best is subjective. I’m going to keep working with LOKLiK and see what all it can do. It’s got great potential. 🙂
Click anywhere on the canvas and then right click in the upper left corner of the canvas and select the measurement you want. Check out our video here ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-0lCm-PCGN8k.htmlsi=2XjSkg714vroyevK about 36 seconds in.
LOKLiK is new to the market in the cutting machine arena. Yes, there software is a little clunky but they are releasing updates regularly and some of those recent updates are showing promise. I understand the frustration but I’m holding on and hoping this really takes off.
He speaks the truth. The fact is that the Cricut Joy Xtra can do everything the LOKLIk can do with the exception of the width (Xtra cuts up to 8.5" wide; LOKLiK cuts up to 12" wide). The price difference is very small between the two.
