FAQs


What is Vinyl Cutting?

Vinyl cutters are computer-controlled machines that can make precise cuts in thin sheets of vinyl. You can use vinyl cutters to create decals, stickers, heat transfers (for t-shirts), and to cut a variety of other materials, as well.

How can I use the EDGE Lab vinyl cutters?

You’ll need to attend a workshop or tutorial (check schedule here!) to learn how to use Silhouette Cameo 3 and its design software. Students who earn the “Silhouette and T-Shirt Press” Digital Badge are able to use the equipment without supervision, and will get to make some free cuts and a free t-shirt. If you earn the “Silhouette and T-Shirt Press” badge, you become eligible to work on a “Titan 2” Digital Badge, which will allow you to use our premium vinyl cutter to create larger projects, including signs and banners.
