You might’ve noticed the Continuous Cutting option on your iCraft machine and wondered, “What’s this? How’s it different from StandardCut?” I had the same question. In fact, I saw some community members raising similar doubts, which made me curious enough to dig deeper. After learning more, it made perfect sense—it’s a handy way to handle longer projects or larger designs with ease.
Here’s the deal: Continuous Cutting is part of Standard Cut but works without a mat. It uses smart materials with a special backing that feeds directly into the machine, removing size limitations. Think of it as trading a fixed-size notebook for a roll of endless paper—perfect for those big, seamless projects.
Why Use Continuous Cutting?
Sometimes, a cutting mat just isn’t enough. For example:
You’re creating a wall decal but have to split the design into smaller sections because the mat isn’t long enough.
Or you’re working on a banner and end up spending too much time aligning each part instead of focusing on the design itself.
Continuous Cutting offers a simple solution to these challenges. With Continuous Cutting on LOKLiK machines, you can cut designs up to 21 feet long in a single go—no mat needed. This feature makes it easier than ever to handle large-scale or seamless projects without the hassle of breaking your design into smaller parts.
What Can You Make?
When I think about Continuous Cutting, a few projects immediately come to mind:
Custom labels for storage: Create an entire set of uniform labels for pantry jars, gift boxes, or even craft supplies without stopping to reload.
Window or glass decorations: Long, flowing designs for seasonal themes or special events that don’t require multiple sections.
Wall or car decals: Long, seamless designs that are perfect for home decor or personalizing your vehicle.
Those are just a few ideas to get started, but I’d love to know—what would you create with Continuous Cutting? Have a fun project in mind, or already tried something exciting? Share your thoughts in the comments!

This is an awesome feature and I love that that I craft can do this. I know I would love this feature but I know I would love it if the machine could cut wider but obviously this is not an option at the moment but maybe in the future when LOKLiK brings out More machines they could possibly have a larger wide format cutting machine. But This feature itself has made Cutting wedding signage, much more easier for me. Thank you so much, LOKLIK
Yes I agree, I hope they don’t just forget about the loklik crafter machine. But bring the same new updates and features to it that the loklik icraft gets. I personally love this feature on my cricut maker 3. As a teacher I used to make huge banner signs and things for my classroom.
Once I get my new icraft first thing that I want to test is if the foil tool and scoring tool will fit in my crafter machine. I really want these machines to succeed but Loklik does have some work to do. I think a big step would be making everything backwards compatible with the crafter would be a huge community apology for all the people that spent money on their first machine. Help to get some trust back, I know a lot of people were mad when they announced the icraft machine.
Do you mean the foiling tool for the crafter? I can’t seem to find a foiling tool for the I craft anywhere, And if you are talking about the foiling tools from other brands, I’m pretty sure they don’t work. I’ve had somebody mention that they’ve tried and it doesn’t work.
The foiling tool and scoring tool for the LOKLiK icraft. Sorry my post was a bit confusing lol. They are only available in USA at the moment. Was told March April for outside of USA release.
The continuous vinyl is normally called smart vinyl. It’s currently available from htvront in the USA but not else where yet. There are other brands you can find on Amazon and things. Just make sure they say smart vinyl or the width is 13 inch
This is what i ask to @Marino she has video. Thinking also to use normal vinyl with same size maybe i just need to cut it straight accurately so it wont tear off the sides.
