Hi Guys, I bought a roll of the Avery Etchmark vinyl to block some of the windows in our CPU rooms. The stuff is very tough to work with, getting bubbles out etc. Does anyone have any helpful ideas?. I am bascially just cutting out a 24 X 24 square to cover the window. I dont want to waste anymore of this stuff, its pricey. Thanks Dan

Hi Guys, I just got some booklets from Avery, and I noticed that they offer some vinyl with "EZ Apply" Technology, it is supposed to install easier with less bubbles etc. Does anyone have any experience with this product?? Is there really a difference? I am very new to this but have been using Oracel 651 up to this point. Thanks, Dan

HI, I am trying to layout text to make simple signs for our parking lots. I produce the text in Inkscape, but when I try and save it and open it in Signcut nothing shows up. There is no need to "trace" text correct. I have tried doing both. I tried saving it as an eps file and opening it, but nothing is there. I have also tried to trace it and open it in signcut and both ways dont work. I am getting very confused, hopefully I am diong something wrong. Thank you, Dan

Hi Everyone, I am having an extremely hard time "vectoring" etc with inkscape, also using th signcut software. I have been reading through numerous posts on here about the the other software availible, corel, flexi, photoshop, win pc amoung others. My question is which one would you guys recommend to someone who is Brand new to the vinyl cutting scene. I have read good things about WIN PC PRO because I guess it is an all in one program. I noticed that it is very expensive $1,000 and up. I came accross this website www.grs-systems.com and they are listing it for $395, is that legit? What would your sugguestions been. I am not doing anything crazy at all with this basic words and the company logo thats about it. Thanks everyone!!

Hi again, I am probably driving you guys crazy, but I do appericate all the help and advice. I am having a tough time with the whole vectoring process etc.This should be done through Inkscape correct? And I go to the trace bitmap option?. Does anyone know of a good manuel or book that can help with this. Also I have a having a tough time seeing how to position text etc in order to save vinyl etc. I am sure that you want to fit as many imanges etc etc as you can so you dont waste vinyl. Is there a layout page or something within signcut that will allow me to position the items etc. Thanks again

Hi Again, I have been completely overwhelmed with the amount of Vinyl out there. I really need some serious help deciding what Vinyl to get and where to purchase it. I would like to find somewhere online to purchase my first roll, and in the future looking for somewhere in the Boston Area to purchase it. We will be only using it to putting banking hours etc on our banking center doors etc. Could someone recommend a good quailty "white" vinyl * * where to purchase it. I am getting confused with brands, model quailty mils etc. Thanks again you guys are a great help!

Hi Everyone, Thanks again for all your advice so far its been very helping in trying to figure all this out. I am ready to purchase my first plotter. It looks like it is down to the US cutter 549.99 and the Copam 649.99. I am just unsure which one. The $100.00 difference is not a concern to us, but I am still undecided. It looks like parts etc are more readily availible for the Copam. It also appears the the Copam is much better built. This is something that more likely get used once week rather then daily. Long tem quaility is there a difference. Easy of use, they both appear to be very similar, but I am still unsure. Lastly quailtiy of the product that is produced is there a difference. Sorry again for all the questions,but I just wanted a bit more help before I made the decision this morning. Thanks again, Dan

HI Everyone, I currently run the Facilites Department at a bank, and we are going to start design our own signage for the buildings etc. Basic thing such as hours etc. I have been overwhelmed with options etc. I have looked a few brands US utter, Easy Cut, Roland and a few others. I am looking to spend in the 500-900 dollar ranger, but there seems to be a variety of options. The US Cutter looks nice, but is there are there differences in ease operation, also what about service and parts. Thanks for all your help, Dan
