Could anyone advise ref an idea I have. Wife wants to change the ac return grill. It’s about 24 x 36”. I was thinking that I could get some refrigerator magnet material and use a drag knife to cut my own pattern into it and stick it on the old grill. The material is .03 thick. Anyone with experience with a drag knife might be able to advise?
I might have problem with small cut outs sticking to the knife?
Any input appreciated.

Hi Scott, I make the following drag knife holder for Roland style cutters. Thickest material I’ve used it on so far is 0.02" thick vinyl shown in this video. One of the problems I had initially was the blade being pinched when ending a cut on a curve. I therefore added tabs where needed to assure the blade ends each run on a straight line.
Yes, you’re correct. I was allowing for that. But think lm going to explore this more.
Thank you for your response.
Thanks for your input. Still trying to figure this out
do you have the file available to print one of these myself? thanks in advance!!
Carbide create make a good drag knife. Used it for making multiple labels on my woodworker pro
