Of course, you'll need a Cricut Maker or Cricut Maker 3 and the Cricut engraving tip with the Quick Swap Housing.

If you didn't know, the Quick Swap Housing will also fit for the wavy blade, the perforation blade, the debossing tip and the scoring wheel. So you only need one Quick Swap Housing for all these tips.

Also, there is a way to engrave with the Cricut Explore but it involves a non-Cricut tip, which I don't recommend and I won't be covering this in this course.

Engraving plastic

Materials:

A picture frame of your choice (I got mine at IKEA)
If the frame has protective glass instead of plastic, you can get this craft plastic of 0.020" to replace the glass. Or even this 0.007" craft plastic can also work.
Strong grip mat - Purple
Painter's tape
Lint roller

Engraving Wood

Materials:

Basswood planks (do not use Balsa wood) - Look for 1,5 mm in thickness (1/16") or less - These are the ones I bought: CAD; USD
Strong grip mat - Purple
Masking tape
Sandpaper (I'm using fine-grit #120)
Wood Stain (I'm using Saman water-based wood stain colour #203 Sesame)
Clearcoat (I'm using Minwax polycrylic)
Foam brush
