Who in their right mind gave me access to a vinyl cutter?

Is it bad I want to stencil a little Gengar and glass etch the bottom corner of the Stringbean? Maybe give the 250 a little Snorlax? Like I said- who gave me access to this thing? (I did. The answer is me.)

Very nice work.  I’d made dumb nerdy stuff too.  Just not the same type of dumb nerdy stuff as whatever a Gengar or a Snorlax are.

I remember almost convincing Patrick to put in a request to corporate for a vinyl cutter to be shared among the sites.  One can only imagine the use it would have gotten put to during the intervening years.

The Snorlax is more fitting of the 250 as its waiting for the passenger brake caliper replacement and subsequent bleeding before being functional again.

What kind do you have, I’d love to get one but don’t have any idea where to start or how expensive they are

Cricut Explore Air 2 - it’s the runner up gold standard of DIY Pinterest mom’s apparently. While I see it as a great decal and glass etching stencil tool the forums and their own page is flooded with “live laugh love” and mommy & wine quotes. Once you sift through that or are artistically gifted enough to be self sufficient it's pretty handy. I got mine in black just to separate myself from the moms out there plastering their kid's stuff with inspirational quotes. (Amazon was trying really hard to put the mint colored one in my shopping cart at checkout). All in after the machine, a roll of vinyl and some contact transfer paper it's sub $250. Blades are like $6 which I was surprised considering how well they work and I assumed would be the cash cow for the company as a disposable part - when in reality they make their money off the stencil/font marketplace. You make a font or stencil, host it for  say $1.99, someone buys it, you get a cut and cricut gets a cut. It's like blipshift but for wine drunk moms.
