  1. Ok, this has just started happening, and I certainly didn't start playing with any options. Signcut is making weeding lines of it's own! Doesn't matter if I open a EPS file I've downloaded or import a design from Illustrator CS3 - it does it everytime. This is why I'm putting it down to Signcut. So I opened a fresh EPS, did a print preview, saw the lines there, closed the preview, went to edit > delete all weeding lines, opened back up in print preview again annndd.....BAM - still there. Now I swear I haven't changed a damn thing since I used it last, and no one else uses this box. So far I've: turned off ALL the settings in the printer area - same problem turned everything back to default - same problem Annnddd... found the problem. I'm still gonna post. Never know when someone wants the info. Click on "Tile Frame" Uncheck "Distance Frame" All fixed.

    Point out what I did wrong!

    Cheers Skeeter - sure am dry. Pitched in to help the unfortunete though, so karma feels good to me. Have now run into a different problem with my cutting software...time for a new post. In the Signcut section. lol. I cna't catch a break today.

    I totally agree with the "learn by doing" concept that many forget these days. I was just hoping someone could point out where I went wrong in my construction of the sticker so then I could remember for next time. The one thing I find out about doing rastering is that it does lose a bit of the quality. I guess there's some tweaks in Illustrator that I'm missing out on. Funny thing is - I'm doing this for a mate, and he's paying me with a 6 pack. So whenever you guys are in Brissy, Australia - drop me a line and I'll shout you a beer.

    Nah nothing is ever easy guys I'll give what Jay said a shot. Someone sent me a PM saying I should of "welded" which may of been a step missing in the instructional guide I read on here. So I'll look into that one too. Thanks guys.

    Yes, that would be the easy thing to do if it was easy. Which it isn't.

    Something to do with groupings or something. While the graphic on the screen looks fine, I've done something horribly wrong. The cutter cuts the wrong stuff! It's cutting through letters and other various things. See if anyone here can figure out where I screwed up? Warneymk2.ai Warneymk2.ai

    Creating a flag "waving"

    Ok, I've searched around the instruction section and a few others trying to find what I'm after. Is there something you can do with illustrator where you have your rectangle, and warp it to make the single wave in a flag? I've been plodding around, just can't find it.

    Refine cutter - creeping?

    Thanks guys - turned out to be a bevvy of problems. 1. Loose grips 2. Blunt blade (but it was cutting fine...ish) 3. Gunk hiding on a guide.

    Done. Nothing side to side, feels very tight back and forth.

    Refine cutter - creeping?

    Yup, gave em all a good couple of turns. Gonna suck cause the knobbled roller underneath is pointy enough to leave marks on the vinyl.
  13. Ahoy - I've got a Refine 751MH cutter...has been running well for a year. Just lately on big cut jobs, it seems to be creeping forward during cutting. When it comes time to do the weeding lines (lets say on a 50cm long job) it's creeped forward on the vinyl about 2cm. So the weed lines are cutting into the product. Not sure why it's doing it either. Some details: Windows XP Adobe Illustrator as editor Sign Cut X2 as cutting software The cutter runs over SERIAL cable, not USB or anything.
