    Shrink Plastic

    Has anyone cut shrink plastic and if so did you have any issues? I have been having a sort out and found a pack that I don’t even remember buying 🤣 and thought about using it to make a stencil or embossing plate.

    I hope you are all well and have had a happy crafty day.

    Good evening everyone. I have not tried it, but i think if you use settings for acetate and maybe double cut a few times.Use your deep cut blade
    and a heavy cutting mat. Hope this helps.

    Just make sure if you are using the shrinky dink type plastic that your area is well ventilated before you put it in the oven or micro wave. The fumes are toxic and can cause major breathing and health issues.
