yes that's correct, is there a way to draw a line in the dead centre of any shape?
Or make a a smaller version of each letter? I tried grabbing the corner of a copy of each letter and reducing the size but it dosent line up exactly
thanks

What i need is a constant width thanks

Hi its Badaboom font.
https://fonts.adobe.com/fonts/badaboom#fonts-section
It would be good to do it to lots of different fonts as I get asked to add LED neon quite often.
I could do it free hand with lines and curves but found it hard to keep a constant 1/2 width thanks
-
I have this design POW ! and want to glue some LED neon strip onto the centre of the letters.
Its would be easier if I could cut out a 1/2 inch strip central to the letters, following the shape to act as a guide.
Is there an easy way? many thanks

OK will do

Hi I did weld to convert it so its editable.
Then I changed it to colour wire view and deleted the bits I didnt want. It worked in the end but I thought there would be a quicker way? Thanks

Then i want to cut the black block shadow out in one piece and then layer the red DISCO on top. There seems to be a padding around the font and when i try to cut the black block shadow out it wants to cut the white lines out too not just a solid black block?
any ideas? thanks

Hi all I have a font called "Discoteque" and some letters have a flatened area which should be rounded, how can i edit it? It wont let me node edit it?
As you can see the bottom left of the A has a flat bit and even the top is a bit flatterend? thanks

Many thanks will give it a go

Sorted it! Its quite hard to select 2 objects before using the punch tool.
Is there a way to select 2 objects using the object tool bar on the left of the main screen? instead of trying to put a box around the two objects? thanks

I managed to punch out the letters on the green rectangles but the red rectangle wont allow me to punch out the letters?
-
Hi to get a bit of practice in ive grabbed some signs and tried to replicate them.
This one looks great but when i try to cut it it cuts a red rectangle and then cuts the letters in white seperatly ? also its the same with the green rectangle?
What im trying to do is have a red rectangle with the letters cut out and then two green strips with the letters cut out...the white will be the wall colour?
thanks

I only want the light to pass through the white opal perspex not the vinyl thanks
-
Ok thanks as i said i can not print because lots of the design is in free air its not just a block of stacked vinyl there are hundreds of tiny bits to the design which are away from the main part. Which in the end will be stuck to a piece of opal perspex with a light shining through..thanks
-
Ok thanks, why do people layer from top down? It fries my brain a little thinking about doing it that way...
-
It's a design where some of the parts are layered on top of another vinyl but lots of the different coloured layers are in a space and not touching another layer so printing would not be an option. Its worked doing the layers wet but it took some time to do....thanks
-
Hi thanks so are you saying that only paper application tape is suitable for doing layers wet? The items are to be sent to a customer fully layered and for him to just fix the pre layered piece?
Would it be easier to layer in the vertical position. I tried removing the full backing piece but found it impossible to line up on a desk when dry? Thanks

I cut a design out which has 4 colours, i wanted to stack them on top of each other they are very detailed with lots of small pieces.
I cut the base layer and i wet the surface with a mist of water with a little soap and put the new layer on top, i could jiggle it about so it lined up perfect ( I had put registration marks on the design too)
But it was a right job trying to remove the clear transfer paper and leave the small bits of the design on top of the base layer mainly due to the base layer been damp and the size of the new layer parts, i did squezee as much water as i could.Is there any tips on doing this? Would it be better to leave the second layer to dry completly before trying to remove the clear transfer paper?
Any tips would be welcomed? Due to the actual size and small detail of the design, and some bits seemed a little off you need to jiggle it about a bit to get it to look right so doing it dry would be more of a nightmare
thanks
How would i do this in Vinyl master?
in VinylMaster CUT, LTR, PRO & DSR

Hi thanks I tried that, just by doing the outline but it just looks inflated and the original letter stays the same size which is not 1/2 inch.
Found another way by making 1/2inch rectangle shapes and stretching the length and angle to fit into each letter. Which is good in one way as it tells you the length of each one and the Led neon can only be cut at 1 inch spacing.
For any of the curved sections it was a case of using the elliptical tool to make a shape which fitted perfect and then making a duplicate and then grabbing the corners to make a smaller version.
Then a bit of node editing and weld them together. All a bit long winded
