[Very first try at Layering]

Nice! I see registration marks- may i ask which software you used?

[Avery Vinyl No Likely !]

get yourself some 751- I usually do very small letters --1/4" with 751 and its great. ( with 60 degree clean cut).

thank you for sharing. 

[First Large Vehicle Project....]

Nice Project!  (thank you DS).

[vehicle and motorcycle vectors]

We all have been there!!- you just gotta work it and learn it brotha! Download Inkscape and or Signblazer- watch the tutorials online, vectorize a nice image, play with the nodes - transfer and cut etc. 

 

To start here is a nice image I googled image for you by searching Honda St1100 pan european:

[god is good scored a graphtec ce 5000 -60]

Man, thats a good deal- enjoy.

[Rear Windshield Wiper]

I agree to use 751. My wifes honda pilot has 751 and a rear wiper. No problems and we are at 3 years. Large graphic.

If it were me, I would place the cutter in original packing foam and rubbermaid container in the cab. Then once to the location remove and place on a custom stand that has some sort of quick release holders. 

[CE 6000-60 Noise Problem]

I think it sounds like servo creep. From my RC car days- when the servos would have a very slight amount of electricity they would "creep" or make that sound.

I think that is what it is-trying to find a zero point-or trying to hold a point-- almost like its in between two points in the motor- that's the best I can describe it.- But I'm not sure if its detrimental long term. 

[Something about a fresh 60 blade and fresh 651 vinyl....]

agreed or fresh 60 and 751. weeds like butter.

[Oracal 8810 frosted glass help]

On Oracal 8510, Action tac works great- i highly recommend applying wet. I have done a few windows (my home) and years later no bubbles. Once i tried dry and got bubbles.

I didnt use backing tape, these were just full sheets.

If you really need it, these are on ebay- the original decal kit for 22.00. You can then scan it?

[Is static electricity causing write port error and other mysterious problems?]

Direct USB is much faster for sending info to the cutter.

[Is static electricity causing write port error and other mysterious problems?]

I use a Belkin adapter with the three lights on my Pcut. Also I installed a little ground strap from the plotter to the frame. i used existing screws and little clips from auto parts store.

However it is faster with USB interface- the converter lights flash showing its translating, and the tracing takes longer. I use Windows XP and Signblazer.

[Custom Emblem, I love having a plotter]

Great! Thanks guys for the tips i will try it.

[Custom Emblem, I love having a plotter]

what software do you use? I really need to get software that does the reference blocks for layering.

Thanks,

OK so my tool holder has cracked after MANY years of use. I have one ready to go in. I am comfortable with basic mechanics and electronics- but can someone tell me the best way to replace? Which covers to remove?

Thanks in advance.
