Cricut
Library Branch
Use of FabLab equipment is restricted to Palos Heights Public Library cardholders. Users must be 12 years of age or older unless accompanied and monitored by a responsible caregiver. A Palos Heights cardholder may be accompanied by up to 2 guests, who are not required to be Palos Heights residents.
The FabLab is an active, collaborative space. While users are expected to always behave respectfully and courteously, there should be no expectation of a quiet environment.
Equipment
The Cricut is an electronic cutting and drawing machine. Designs created on your computer can be cut or drawn into material such as paper, cardstock, vinyl, fabric, and more.
The FabLab has three heat presses available. The Cricut EasyPress is a 9x9 flat iron for heating iron-on vinyl or Infusible Ink prints to shirts, towels, and other flat surfaces. The Cricut Mug Press is for heating Infusible Ink or sublimation prints to mugs. The Cricut Hat Press is for applying materials to the surface of hats.
