88x

Yeah it was alittle intimidating but it's just like installing many smaller decals. The longest one was 78" long. I dry installed everything except the back half of the hood (I center hinged it) I tried to do it dry but with the overall length and having the air filter housing and running in to everything else, I couldn't get it to lay down without sticking to itself.

How does the cutting strip look? Does it sink down or is damaged where you are having trouble?

Here's the final one of the trucks. This truck is bright red with flat black stripes and silver pinstripes.

I did the install on the 2nd of the 3 trucks over the weekend. This truck is burnt orange metallic with a champagne metallic stripe and black pin stripe. Here are the pics

I use scalp also and have had this same issue but with a laserpoint II. I see in the lower right corner of the cutting mat, there is a what looks like more text. Even tho it's not on the cutting mat I have had it where the software will send that to the cutter even though it's off the mat. mine will just cut like crazy along the edge untill it reaches the amount of data that was sent and then go back and finish the design. Not sure if that is what you have but you could try cutting and pasting just what you want cut into a new page and seeing if it still does it.

I don't use VM (SCALP for me) but is there somewhere (maybe where the drop down menu that currently says default) that says monochrome? Rather the colors that it's tracing in now?

I just received a call from the gentleman that owns the trucking company. He said he has 2 more trucks he wants done with the same design but with different colors!!

I made the install over the weekend. It went alot better then I thought thanks to the help I received here. Here are the pictures

Oh wow thats an amazing trick you just showed thanks a million for sharing that @jmas I will definitely be using the second method on this install!!

I'm thinking of using it to transfer the level line along the sleeper to the hood since there's nothing there to go off of

Here is my 1st attempt at lettering a race car. It was fun/challenging trying to layout the logos to the correct sizes to make them look ok. I learned a lot for next time.

Yep & @Dakotagrafx nailed it. They were super easy and very quick to knock out I used the company called Versatrans as they had a special running where you get 50% off up to a $100 for 1st time users. After they are done they have the same feel as screen printing. The green isn't quite as neon looking as siser. But they turned out nice I think

Here's a close up of the back

I ended up making a sale to him for 41 t-shirts also!! Thanks again to everyone that contributes their info on this forum. All the info I needed was right on here about the best way to go about producing that many of the same style shirt. Here's a picture of the shirts I completed this morning.

Thanks and that's a good idea. I did something similar I measured the body height and then just scaled it in Sure Cuts Alot to size . Thanks for the idea the next one I will try your way.

@Doliz I don't even know what that is?

I just bought this exact heat press last week after following @Wildgooses recommendations. It came on Friday and I am very amazed at the quality of it for a Chinese press. I have yet to press anything on it, but it seems nice enough. I will mention that I bought the one from there eBay site as it was a bundle kit for $269.00 with Free shipping (it came with 2 shirts and 5 or so colors of vinyl). Vs the one on there for $249 + $45 shipping.

Here are a couple of Fire Trucks that I recently did. The regular cab truck I just replaced the door decals to match the rest of the trucks. (Even tho the truck in the back ground of the picture crew cab has the old style lettering) The rest of there trucks are like these 2

Hello does anyone have a template for a 2002 Ford F350 Super Duty Crew Cab Dually they would be willing to share? Thanks in advance

Hey primal It's the center one of the 1st page labeled FordP_013.ai Thank you so much!

Sorry duplicate post

Hey Mike I just checked back on my notes, I started at 275g with a new blade when cutting greenstar vinyl (all colors)and the last setting I had wrote down was 305g as the blade was dull. Hope that helps. Oh and I seam to stay right around 4 to 500 as the fastest I like to cut but as goose said slower is better on small letters and such.
