Free hamburger SVG files

How the layers stay in one piece

A burger is a pile of separate things, and a cut file of one usually falls into six loose pieces. Here each layer is marked off from the next by a cut line about 1.6 mm wide that stops a little under 3 mm short of each end, so the bun, lettuce, tomato, cheese and patty stay joined at both sides and the burger lifts off the mat in one go. On a light surface the cut lines show as pale gaps between dark layers.

The full burger is 100 mm wide and about 86 mm tall. The seeds are openings about 6 mm long and the cheese points are 10 mm deep, so it cuts well in vinyl from about 60 mm wide. Smaller than that, use the silhouette on a plate, the icon or the cute burger, none of which has seeds. If you want real separate colours, use the layered burger or the layers pulled apart.

Cookouts, diners and kitchens

The burger with a blank flag is made for names: cut one per guest for a cookout table. The burger with fries and the one with a soda sit on a flat strip, so they line up along the bottom of a menu board or a window. The cartons and cups are plain on purpose, and any colour scheme is yours to choose.

How to open the files

• Cricut Design Space: choose Upload, pick the SVG, and add it to the canvas. Set the width you want; the shape is already welded.
• Silhouette Studio: Designer Edition and above open the SVG. The free Basic Edition does not, so open the DXF instead.
• LightBurn, xTool Creative Space and Glowforge: import the SVG, then set the layer to cut, score or engrave.
• Inkscape, Illustrator and Affinity: open the SVG. It is a plain filled path, so you can recolour it, add a stroke or combine it with your own work.
• Printing or sublimation: use the PNG, which has a transparent background.

Each design page lists the file’s narrowest part at seven sizes, so you can tell whether it will survive at the size you plan to cut.
