So i'm trying to figure out if I should get FlexiStarter for MAC or SignCut-X2? Does anyone like FlexiStarter more? Also are there screenshots of the software. I've been dabbling around with SignCut-X2 and it's okay. But do you folks think? Has anyone used FlexiStarter for mac? Respectfully, DescineModern

Laserpoint 24" get stuck and sits on waiting with FlexiStarter8.5

Why is this happening? Is there a fix? This never happened with my PCut 24" and I'm pretty disappointed... -
I just bought a new iMac 24" from Apple. It's got 2.66 GHz Intel Core 2 Duo, 4GB member and is the newer 2009 model. I've installed SignCut X2 and for some reason it is not seeing the USB port. It's so weird cause on my MacBook it see's the USB port where the Cutter is connected. Does anyone know the fix for this?

I just got my Keyspan and it works perfectly thank you very much!

I tried installing SignCut Pro on my new iMAC 24" and for some reason it's not seeing the USB port. Kimon have you heard of this issue before?

How do I either set the size of the vinyl or how do I know how big each letter or design will be? I'm confused... on SBE you can see exactly where its going to print on the vinyl but on SignCut you dont even know where its going to cut. HELP! Thanks :P

for the past week i've been using my PCut and Laserpoint both 24" - I got R-Tape AT-60 and have been using HT-55 with Oracal 631... I havent had any issues once I lowered the down pressure on the blade. Thanks for everyone's help!
-
I'm losing my mind haha - Oracal 631 is not coming off as easily as I would like it too. I'm even using HT-55 that Oracal sent over for me to sample. This is like a huge science getting the blade and depth pressure right.. I have PCut 24" and my Pressure is set to 90 right now.. the blade is at half the credit card size. Anybody else have tips or ideas on how to get it just right? Thanks a lot!

Okay so here's my verdict for R-Tape AT-60 versus HT-55... I actually like HT-55 better than R-Tape AT-60 for Oracal 631. It comes off the backing easily with R-Tape AT-60 and Oracal HT-55 but the problem seems to be *for me* with AT-60 it is a b*tch *excuse my french* when trying to apply the application tape to the Oracal because if you mess up its hard to adjust the application tape due to it high-tack nature. If you try to adjust the application tape it actually pulls off the Oracal 631 vinyl from the back. I also figured out that alot of my designs will be 15" or less so I'm going to be purchasing 15" vinyl instead of 24" vinyl the next time around. It' def good to have 24" vinyl but if someone know of the best way to apply vinyl + application tape without getting bubbles and just fubar results. Please let me know! I like AT-60 for it's clear nature but I like HT-55 for its ease in use. Thats my two cents - hope it helps!

why is my new cutter scratching ON PURPOSE?
DescineModern replied to newcutter's topic in SignBlazer
No Problemo - I had the same problem. Why type of cutter do you have?If you have the pcut you can slightly pull the cover w/ the logo forward so you can tighten your screw. -

DescineModern replied to newcutter's topic in SignBlazer
Also, this happened to me - make sure the screw holding the blade is not pressed up against the cover on the left side. This will cause it not to go up and down and will then cause scratching on your vinyl. It happened when I first got mine. -
Welcome from Los Angeles. Best of luck with your business and the Copam.

Hi Guys, I am a newbie in the UK needing help...

Welcome from Los Angeles! Cheers! -
I'd call oracal and ask whats up Oracal sent me over a 10yrd roll of Oracal HT-55... and I have R-Tape AT-60 coming in on friday. I'll do a video review of the tapes and Oracal 631. The problem seems to be (for me) that I'm cutting into the backing because 631 is coming off with the backing when I apply the tape. It's a huge science of getting everything perfect. I would recommend people to first do small test-cuts and also, don't risk doing a huge cut right away. You want to make sure all components work before you waste vinyl. And Vinyl = $$$...

I shall - I have a shipment of 631 coming this friday with both HT-55 and R-Tape AT-60. I'll do a video review and post it on YouTube.

Hi Christi, I def. saw what you posted and have tried that. Just wondering, okay so I apply the squeegee with the letters face up first and then flip it upside down (without apply pressure on the backing) pull 180˚ and it should work?

Hi Kenya, I drew my company fontface in illustrator with my wacom tablet. Ya I can weed 651 and 631 great but, taking 631 off the backing is the killer. haha What type of cutter do you have and what pressure setting are you on? JW -
Ya some of the letters come off and some of them stick on the backing. Then it ends up ripping up the backing with it... it's not like i've seen in some videos coming off easily! haha. The funny thing is that the HT-55 tape works great with 8500 Transparent Vinyl.... ?!
