    Total Failure?

    Any idea which one? A or B?
  2. Alright well i've had my plotter for a few years. Has worked great. When I first got it I had lots of problems with static, So I had to move the plotter off of carpet and onto tile for its life span. Unfortunately I still ran into static problems off an on as the vinyl rolls themselves especially siser. Well needless to say the cutter has all but completely stopped working. I have a video showing what its doing. It's weird because i have let it sit for about a month and randomly tried it again and it works and will work for a while (week) and then just start acting the same. The plotter isnt even plugged into the computer either. My question is, is this a problem that can be fixed with a replacement mainboard or am i looking at a new plotter?

    Christmas T-Shirt Gifts

    Well here are some of the T Shirts i made this year for the family.
  5. Well I made a buddy at work a couple shirts for the gift exchange this year. He owns a Honda Civic, and a Nissan Titan. http://metatrox.net/Shirt-Nismo.jpg[/img] The Civic shirt has a printed transfer for the logo and vinyl "civic". The Nismo is all vinyl.

    Thanks guys! LOL a pretty expensive addiction. Especially when you make more stuff for yourself than sell.

    More T-Shirts!

    I have a Sunie press15x15. I use Siser EasyWeed. Both the Blue and brown/Black shirt is an "Alternative Vintage Soft". They are a very nice soft 100% cotton form fit shirt. Wife loves them. I beleive the shirts were from here http://jiffyshirts.com/women/shortsleeve/alternative/AA393/?idcust=583411509 Funny thing is I actually only have one torso. Its a male torso thats quite slim. So for female shirts we bought a nicely padded bra to place on it. LOL Boy does it look weird with no closes on because the torso is all ripped for a guy. LOL But it works

    I'll have to check when i Get home. Yes distressed fonts look so much better but i know what you mean about weeding. I figured these were gonna be One-Offs so i wanst too worried about a bit of weeding. Although I tend to edit them and get rid of stuff thats too small. Thanks! Well here is a photo and a video. BTW i should have said "New to me". Its a 2003 Saleen Supercharged Convertible. #158 Funny thing is we didnt catch it until after we had already pressed it. Oh well! That makes it unique i suppose! LOL Thanks for all the great replies everyone! Its much appreciated!

    A Couple quick shirts

    When applying the heat transfer vinyl to the Jersey, what i did was lay some old (regular)vinyl backing(the wax paper part) under it and the press vinyl never stuck to it. It worked great!

    A Couple quick shirts

    Well i've had a few friends and friends or friends ask me to make them some shirts. So here are a few of them. 1) A two color Bengal shirt. 2) Simple but a cool font. 3) They wanted a number also but i didnt trust pressing on that big of holes. They said it seems to be holding up alright despite the little holes.

    My remodeled studio.

    Well everything was a fairly low budget. I got all the slat board for free along with really cheap brackets and shelves from a scrap place. The cabinets were old ones a buddy pulled out when he remodeled his kitchen. The only things I paid for were the countertops and two colors of paint. Cream for the walls and brown for the cabinets and slat board.

    Countertop display

    Its hard to say. These decals are sold at a wholesale price to a friend of mine who owns a travel center. I sell them to him at a steal of a price $.60ea. He then in turn sells them for $2.98. I make sure they are all extremely easy to weed and all the packaging is made in house at a low price. They cost me about $.23ea. to make. It does take a bit of my time putting them all together but that's just this customer. Other customers I sell them for about $1.00 ea. Like i said its at a wholesale price, so there is a minimum order of about 30 or so. Works for me. Yeah I dont make a ton of money. But its getting my name out there for larger projects and the customer im working with owns 4 other travel plazas and hotel resorts. When I do individual stuff at a retail price i would charge at least $3-5 each. for this size which is 5"x5". A lot of it depends on what kind of waste i have also.
