 How To Easily Use Sure Cuts A Lot Cricut With Any Device

I find various types of questions about how I use Sure Cuts A Lot with Cricut devices. Many people think it does not work for a longer time and that they were forced to utilize Cricut’s Design Space for their designs. Others previously utilized the discontinued Craft Room software and are looking for something else that could work. Well, it is actually very easy to set it up, and Sure Cuts A Lot Cricut is one of my favorite applications to use.

If you have never utilized Sure Cuts A Lot Cricut before, we will briefly explain what it is and then move into setting it up to work with your Cricut device.

What Are Sure Cuts A Lot Cricut?

Sure Cuts A Lot Cricut is a beginner-friendly application for cutting any shape or font with an electronic cutting device. You can attach artwork/pre-existing shapes and fonts or draw your own design. The newest version, Sure Cuts A Lot Cricut 5, gives new effects such as a stencil tool so that you can simply create stencil bridges.

One of the big merits it has over the Cricut Design Space is that you can utilize it even offline. Not only make you require an active internet connection to cut from Design Space, but you also require that connection to even design. That is why maximum crafters relied on Sure Cuts A Lot Cricut over the years. If you need the newer features of Sure Cuts A Lot Cricut 3/4/5 available to your Cricut Maker, Expression, or Explore Air 2, fear not. I have two simple solutions for getting it to work.

How To Using Sure Cuts A Lot Cricut

Method 1:-

The first method lets us utilize Sure Cuts A Lot Cricut directly by attaching a plugin known as libcutter. I recently found this method on the official website of Cricut message boards and tested it really works. Let’s start:

  1. In the first steps, you have to download and install Sure Cuts A Lot Cricut 5.
  2. You also have to download and install the newest USB Driver.
  3. After that, download the libcutter plugin.
  4. Now unzip the downloaded libcutter-master.zip, and you will now require to copy the wanted plugin files to your Sure Cuts A Lot Cricut Cut Plugins folder which will be placed in your Document folder.
  5. Begin the Sure Cuts A Lot Cricut and move to the cutter menu and select Manage cutters. You should now be able to select Cricut from the Brand/Company, move down the list and press <- Add to list.
  6. Sure Cuts A Lot Cricut may be able to create a connection to your Cricut device. However, in order to cut correctly, a valid key file is required.

 

Method 2:-

For this method, we will move you through utilizing an older version of the program software, Sure Cuts A Lot Cricut 2.

If you do not have SCAL 2, then you have to download it. You can go to the SCAL’s support page and type your name and software serial number to sign in. If you have lost that serial number, go to the Serial Number Retrieval Page where you will require your email address on file. And if you can not place your email address or serial number on file, you also have an option of buying a copy as either a CD or a digital download.

After that, you have to follow the SCAL 2 installation instructions, and you are all set. If you require any of SCAL 4’s newer features, we can also utilize them side-by-side by importing our finished projects or designs from SCAL 4 into SCAL 2.
