If you want to expand your crafting into a home business, the Cameo Pro may be a great option. It isn’t the same kind of speedy workhorse that a Graphtec cutter is. Honorable mention goes to the Silhouette Cameo Pro, which at 24″ wide is a reasonable entry into both craft cutting and small business arenas. But if you are looking to cut large quantities of vinyl in a hurry, these are the machines for you. There aren’t dual tool carriages or a wide range of tools for cutting fabric or thick material. They don’t offer some of the features that craft cutters do. If you are looking for a commercial cutter, there are lots of great options from 15″ all the way up to 72″ wide. If you are working on multiple Apple devices, you can connect to your Cricut via Bluetooth or USB. If I get stuck on something, all of the tutorials are based on the same software.Īnother point for Cricut and Design Space is that is works on MacOS machines, iPhones and iPads. The tools they provide actually work, and there’s just one version of the program. Personally, I like Design Space because it’s really clean and uncomplicated. The results are great and you don’t have to spend time and costly materials on trial and error. Design Space determines the blade depth, cut pressure and cutting speed for you.

The big selling point for Cricut Design Space is that it coordinates every possible tool and every possible material. If you are used to using more advanced design software like Adobe Illustrator, you can easily import finished vector images (in SVG format) into Design Space and complete your projects on the Cricut. Design Space has its detractors, mostly based on how rudimentary the design tools are.
