Hi All... just some random thoughts I have been having about the eClips Machine. Seen the eClips Machine in action last week at J's Knicknacks. Oh Boy.... contemplating if I should add this machine to my collection or not. Leaning more to the "not"... but it sure looks like something that I would LOVE to have. Well, I better use more of my Cricut before doing anything crazy like purchasing it, right!! I did however find out that the eClips Mat and Blades are compatible with the Cricut machine. Infact, I found that the blade and mats are BETTER than what Provo Craft has for the Cricut. The eClips Blade is a little bigger, which allows it to cut a cleaner cut than Cricut's. The mat is NOT too sticky like how the Cricut ones are, and they seem to be a little thinner than the Cricut one as well. The price range are pretty much the same, but if one item is gonna work better than the other, it would be worth checking out.
If you do check it out, let me know what you think.
Hi Jen! Long time no talk, yeah? Just had to leave a comment on this post, especially since I've been contemplating getting the eClips as well. I heard that mats are compatible w/ Cricut, but didn't know about the blades. Now that you've told us, I think I'm gonna try switching blades and see how it cuts...have you tried it?
ReplyDeleteHi Eunice,
ReplyDeleteYes ~ I have tried it, and love the way it cuts. I will take a picture of them both and you will see that it is quite a bit of a difference in the sizes of these blades. Love it. I have been using them since.

I just stumbled across your blog wanting to see if the cricut blades work on the elclips just because where i live the stores dont carry eclips anything!! but i have to tell you i love the eclipse and love the fact that i dont have to spend a dime on cut files!!!
