Drive Housing:This type of housing is designed explicitly for Maker machines, and they differ from standard housing blades because they have a golden top gear that the Cricut Adaptive Tool System drives. Drive Housing blades have a plastic cover that should always be left to keep the gears clean. Housing: it’s what holds the blade in place. You don’t need to change the housing when your blade is due for a change. Although Cricut materials are expensive, pricing for replacing blades is not that bad considering all the lifespan they have. You can go almost a year with the same blade if you use your machine a couple of times a week! Cricut also has this blade organizer, but quite frankly I think you should use that money to get mats, blades, or other cool materials.

My favorite way to store my blades used to be the machine itself, then as the tools kept increasing I got a fancy silverware divider and I use it to keep all my tools organized. For my blades and tips I have a small plastic container where I keep them safe. For a full list of compatible materials, visit this article: Which materials can I cut with Cricut Joy machines?

The blade’s life depends on the kind of materials you are working with, how often you use them, and, of course, how you care for them. Breeze through DIY projects with this all-purpose blade.

Maybe your blades are not cutting well, dragging the materials, cutting too deep, or simply not cutting at all!

It’s the only blade the Joy machines support; the housing is silver and white, and it comes with your machine. Make sure to keep the plastic cover for Drive Housing. This cover protects and keeps the gears of the housing clean. When you remove the cover, you are exposing the blade & housing to small particles like hair and dust. The Scoring Stylus tool allows you to create folds on your materials. It’s perfect for constructing boxesand card making. Use this tool with a mat that will support your base material. For instance, if foiling on vellum, use a LightGrip mat; if foiling on poster board, use a StandardGrip or StrongGrip mat. Scoring StylusCaring for your Cricut blades will increase their life.

Frequent Cricut Blades Problems

Blades: They look similar to a small nail and are inserted inside the housings. Blades can be replaced when cuts are not as sharp as they used to be. Cricut blades are very easy to change. Just be careful because they are very sharp, and I don’t want you to get cut.In use, we've found the average Cricut blade lasts around six months. We use our Cricut Maker every day and the standard Premium Fine Point has easily lasted this long. Other blades may fare better or worse depending on what you're cutting. Can I sharpen my Cricut blade? The Fine Point Blade is the most familiar, and it’s included with all machines. It’s made out of German carbide, which is a highly durable and high-quality material most commonly used for cutting tools materials.
