    I get the impression that Cricuts are super proprietary. Better to get some other brand of vinyl cutter machine, like Silhouette, Brother, Vevor, etc.

      I’m with you on that if it was for me. I have been looking at a getting a laser engraver, and I don’t even consider proprietary software and materials.
