Can I use a vinyl cutter for paper?
I do a lot of scrapbooking. I was looking at a cricut machine. Then my husband told me I should look at a vinyl cutter because you can do a lot more with it.
I read in forums about people making vinyl signs for there cars and things. I don't want to print a picture on it, I just would want a blank cut out shape. Do they do that? Are they all different or do I need to find a specific one?
I own a couple vinyl cutters, we make signs.
NO, you cannot use a vinyl cutter on paper.
The knife will get caught in the paper and tear. The reason you can cut vinyl is because there is a backing, the vinyl is cut, but the backing remains intact, so no tears.
The knifes movement is not linear, it cuts a section, then moves and may return to cut a section near where it has cut already. I guess that is efficient for the plotter, but makes paper cutting impossible.
