In this video, we create a tester for embedding magnets into your laser cut projects. After manually creating a series of holes for the tester, we explore how to hack the Linear Repeat modifier to automate this process. This lets us easily tweak the tester template for different sized magnets.

![Making A Custom Letter Banner
In this video we learn how to create a personalizable hanging letter banner. We create the flag outline by combining basic shapes like a rectangle and triangle.
We see how Customized Repetitions work when using the Linear Repeat modifier. Using this along with a bit of code, we split the letters in a name and turn them into individual pieces of the banner.

![How to Make Flexible ✨ Iridescent ✨ Sheet Material for Cutting on your Cricut
In this tutorial, well show you how to make iridescent (aka dichroic, color-changing, holographic) material that you can cut on your Cricut. This unique material is flexible but doesn’t tear. It’s both transparent and reflective — and casts rainbow shadows and reflections in the sunlight. You can also heat bend it!
Well also share an interlocking flower design and show you how to assemble it and then heat bend it to curl the petals.
If youd like to follow along, you can download the Interlocking Flower SVG here: https://cuttle.xyz/@mokey/Interlocking-Flower-fXZXkLcNtwl6
Note: You can use this same technique to laminate clear acrylic with iridescent window film for laser cutting!
