If you are cutting a project with the fine point blade and find that the cut isn’t going allllll the way through or that the material keeps catching with out finishing the cut? Chances are you need a deep point blade. It’s harder and made of a more durable steel so that it can stand up to harder materials… makes sense! It has a steeper blade angle (60 degrees vs 45) which lets it cut through thicker materials. The deep point blade is the fine point blades big brother. We’ll cover all the important things you need to know about what the deep point blade is and what it does… then have fun making the access project at the bottom of the post! What is the Deep Point Blade? Let’s jump right in… this post is a deep dive into the deep point blade (see what I did there?). Think of it as having the ability to cut delicate, intricate cuts like the fine-point blade but with thicker materials like the knife blade. It’s very similar to the fine-point blade but this blade is made of a more durable, harder steel allowing intricate cuts in thicker materials such as foam sheets, cardboard and thick cardstock. Depending on your project the deep-point blade could be your perfect answer. It’s definitely not one to over-look though. 12 December 2022.Ready for a deep dive on one of Cricut’s best blades? The deep point blade (the black one!) is one of the original blades and seems pretty old school if you have a Cricut Maker with newer, fancier blades. Generally, 3 in (7.6 cm) edging is inexpensive and widely available, yet short enough for the grass rhizomes to easily grow into the garden bed, while 6 in (15 cm) is more expensive and difficult to find, yet will make garden bed maintenance easier in the long run. It typically ranges from 3–6 in (7.6–15.2 cm) high.

Lay out a piece of rope around the garden bed where you plan to install the edging.

Measure the outline of the garden bed using rope.
