Can you guess?

Here is the .eps of it.  I cut it at this exact size.

[fivestar]

BTW, these were done with heatpress vinyl so that's one reason why it can cut so small as heatpress vinyl stays stuck to the backing.

AAAHHH, OK

[Terry]

Ok first off... Thank you for posting the file, Second... I'm sold! I never knew the heat vinyl held better. Third... I cut it on a crap section of vinyl, 45 blade, offset 25, force 70, speed 12, and it cut PERFECT, but I didn't feel like weeding the small stars out so they did lift without taking care, but as you can see they ALL stayed in line and cut. Look at picture with windows picture view so you can use magnifie glass to enlarge and you will see the cut marks on backing all in line. EXCELLENT post thank you. Oh, one more thing I cut it at 8x8inches.

   PS.... My Graphtec cut the same as my Refine 721 on that file.

Ok I just grab the vinyl and ripped the sheet off without weeding it just for the heck of it, surprized that many stars stayed on because I just pulled it real quick. Almost all the bottom row stars stayed on in the center bottom row, I got six out of nine stars, and it looks like you got eight out of nine with heat vinyl.When I pulled it off.. Tiny stars popped off and flew all over me, I have them stuck everyplace.

I actually got 10 out of 10 on most rows.  Here is a pic zoomed out.  BTW, I pretty much "gripped and ripped" mine too when weeding.  BTW, Terry I didn't realize you had a Graphtec and by no means was a trying to "dis" their product or Roland, I was simply showing how well these as other people put it " cheap Chinese made junk" machines cut.

Oh yes you can cut so much more detail with heatpress vinyl then you can with sign vinyl too.

Terry I didn't realize you had a Graphtec and by no means was a trying to "dis" their product or Roland,

 I wasn't thinking that at all.

There will always be people who think the 'name' is worth all of that extra money. The shoes I buy at the dollar store for $12 last just as long as those $100 Nikes my brother wears.

I do agree that heat applied vinyl can do better on smaller detail.

I think this will be a great thread to send potential customers to that may have any doubts about how our cutters compare in cutting quality to the name brand units.

The USCutter community ROCKS!!

Ken just don't forget my "kickback"  :D:D J/K glad I am able to help spread the word about these cutters.  They do a wonderful job as most everyone here knows.

[dgreenh]

That is pretty impressive.  I don't have any heat applied vinyl and I really don't think my refine would cut those small stars in sign vinyl without lifting them up.  Maybe I need to do a little tweaking on my settings.

Ken you should make a sticky post out of this thread. Or use he information gathered here and use it in the pre sale section so people see this.

I am going to move it to the Pre-Sales category and sticky it.

I had a roland pc 60 and a heat press about a year ago.  I loved cutting & weeding thermal vinyl. Adheasive backing made it nice, but I know my roland stunk on small stuff.  Pretty impressive as I'm here researching buying a US Cutter

Thanks for taking the time to do this!!
