I've used my Cricut machine on several past projects. It may not be the most common tool in the shop, but it's definitely great to have for customizing and personalizing projects both big and small.

So in this video, I wanted to take the opportunity to explain a little more about it, demonstrate some examples of how to use it and hopefully get your wheels turning on ways you might could use one in your own shop.

If you've been on the fence about picking up a Cricut for your shop, hopefully this video will help you decide one way or the other if it's right for you.
