    hi all..been a bit since ive checked in(been trying to get my screen printing up and running)..anyways, my step father wants me to do his vinyl on his race car but i kinda feel like the image i have is too many layers and would be best printed via eco solvent printer(pic that will be provided is from a versacam) so im thinking i should suggest to him he needs to go that route again...plz take a look at the pic and let me know what you would do..if it is better to layer, what order? tia

    coming from(and i dont like admitting this :P ) silhouette studio, which is the easier transition? VM or scalp? i have access to both full legit programs and wondering which is the easiest to learn and get started with a new program..spent all night playing with the titan 3 se and WOW it is very smooth! and believe it or not my first cut was flawless and i havent had a bad cut yet!

    going to see how small i v=can get text today as soon as i decide which program imma dedicate my learning to

    also really dont want to, but if in a jam, will silhouette studio send files to the titan? thanks!

    I must be wasteful then - have used a 60 degree cleancut in the roland and graphtec in all holders for years - getting about 10 months of use out of each one before it goes to the reflectives holder for more use

    the 60 is where its at for the detail! lol

    I could be wrong, but I don't believe you need a different blade holder for a different blade. Most cutters use a single blade holder and you can then put any blade in it. Some people us multiple blade holders just to make switching between blade types easier.

    the blade length and more importantly the diameter of the blade where it goes into the holder is important ... im not saying i need a diff holder for a dif degree blade, im just needing to know which holder and blades do i need

    just got off the phone with uscutter..they guy said the SE blade holder is in fact different even tho the day before another customer service guy said only dif in the SE model was cosmetic and menu navigation...he said all their blade will work in the SE holder but on amazon ive found 2 dif size roland style blades, 25mmX1.5mm and 24mmX2mm(think that was the numbers :P )...he couldnt tell me the difference, said just pay the $35 to us and it will be correct..well i dont want pay 35 for a holder when i can go on amazon and get a holder and assortment of blades for less than half that..

    the cutter will be here tomorrow, really hoping somebody can point me in the right direction as i like cutting with 60 degree blades and im sure it will come with a single 45..i also have this feeling whoever refurbed it put a not SE holder in it(guess ill find out), im wondering if this was an earlier posters problem with the titan blade not coming down all the way, mmaybe wrong holder??? hmmm

    hopefully yours comes with the 2 rollers in the back - that single one they show on the bigger units would get old real quick

    I thought the same thing, when I seen the invoice it said it was coming with a stand (I didn't read anywhere the refurb came with a stand) so I was thinking cool but it'll be a pain if I'm changing rolls multiple times a day..looked at the stand on the site and it was the one with 2 rollers..hopefully it's the same one

     

    I still don't like that the invoice says secaba saga 24" when it's advertised as Titan 3 28", the invoice for the stand even says " stand for 28" Titan"..

    must have missed where you said yours was an se - - 

    no idea it might just be a color thing and gets people to buy their holders but I really don't know for sure

    why did they name a stepper motor titan the same as a servo motor titan2 or titan3 . . .doesn't really make sense to most of us but I am sure it makes the stepper motor seem more appealing than if it had a different name.    kind of like naming a mustang with a 6 cyl the same as a roush mustang  - it makes that 6 cyl that looks similar seem like it is worth more by association but in reality it will never perform nearly like the roush :)

    i didnt mention it :P i actually just seen the link when i clicked your link...color is dif and it may be just the angle but the SE holder looks longer, again prolly just a camera trick

    i just ordered the SE today, its a refurb so im not sure if they'll(uscutter) will send a holder and blade/s..so hopefully someone chimes in that can say for sure

    Sure looks like the titans all have the same holder according to this link. https://www.uscutter.com/USCutter-TITAN-and-TITAN-2-Replacement-Blade-Holder

    mine is a SE, if you look at the bottom of the list theres a link to the holder for the SE model...whats the difference?

    on amazon i seen a cpl diff sizes too, like one holder said the blade was 24mmx2mm, the other said 25mmx1.5mm

    when i called uscutter they said really the only diff in the SE model was cosmetic, they made the menu easier to navigate too lol but straight up said it cuts the same..so why is the holder different?

    which blade holder do i get for a titan 3? the holders on amazon differ by a mm or 2 for each holder so wondering which one is actually correct

    also, is an anti static kit recommended for a 28"?   while im at it, i ordered a 28" titan but the invoice says 24" saga..i realize titans are sagas but 24"? advertised as 28"?

    Thank you very much for answering. I'll try the siser then.

    I just come back from a mall and I was checking shirts and I saw that very nice, soft, gummy like material, very flexible. It feels almost like silicon or something like that. For instance that dragon ball shirt was made with this thing. Do you know what this is?
