Using a Cricut machine to cut gaskets..

Using a Cricut machine to cut gaskets..
One of us needs to do this.. and make "hard to find" parts available for our engines... I'm close to pulling the trigger.
Oh,heck yeah!
My wife already has one!
Very soon, I'll be trying this. I have to dig the parts and pieces of my computer out and finish it. Hey, if y'all see me post on here, ask me if I worked on my computer, today. I've been procrastinating about finishing it. As soon as I do get it up and running. I will download Design Space and try it out! I used it in the past, to cut out White Wings cardstock gliders.

Re: Using a Cricut machine to cut gaskets..
I have a Cricut and have made gaskets with it in the past. It's been years since I last messed with it. I also cut custom reeds with it too.

It does indead work smoothly. If anyone needs an exhaust flange gasket cricut file for an os la 25, or leaky spray bar gaskets send me a pm and I'll forward it over.
Anyone know what kinda gasket paper enya uses? It's awesome stuff and cuts well? See below, check out the accuracy of the 3mm circles!!!
Time is my biggest problem, I know how to fairly quickly draft them up with the existing shapes in the software. Enya front gaskets and back plate gaskets for glow engines is pretty straight forward. If some one has the actual drawings with dimensions that's a huge time saver and could motivate me to do it.
I found it took a couple of attempts with manual measuring and back checking to get it right.
Here's how they turned out. Easy to letter / snail mail out.
