    First Covered Trailer

    Nice job
  11. Replaced cutting strip on US Cutter SC model (after removing old strip and cleaning GOOD with denatured alcohol). Now I CAN'T get an even cutting depth. When the blade travels across the 24" width, it cuts all the way through the vinyl and backing in some spots and barley "scratches" in other spots. ANY ideas ? Don't want to have to replace (BUY) another strip!!! All suggestions appreciated!!

    Insta 715

    never done any "heatpressing". Afriend in the printing business Wwho also does a lott of signsand graphics gave me an INSTA press model 715. He said itt didn't work. Brought it tto my shop, lubricaled the bottom ram, swing away top and it all works. He didn't realize that air had to be connected to operate. Questtion is, the micro (limit) swittch is broken and when butttons are pressed, nothing happens. There is a red butttton on tthe air manifold when depressed, acttivatted the lower plattten. Anyone familuar enough with this product to advise. Seems to be a realy heavy dutty machine. Thanks in advance for any help !

    settings

    Hey Ya'll. Just wanted to say thank you again to all who tried to help me get going again. I HAVE ABOUT GONE TOTALLY NUTS for the past several days trying to figure out why my cut was coming out 5-8" longer that setting. Well, after US Cutter sent a new carriage that didn't solve the original problem,( the cutting blade pressure. They sent me a new motherboard which I replaced and the cutting pressure would work then stop. ? I checked settings (ALL) uninstalled and re-installed Sign Blazer 4 times, followed advice from Slice & Dice and some others with no success. SO........I went back to check the pressure issue and found loose wire on carriage (electro magnet) reattached and secured it and pressure issue resolved. Decided to try another computer( older laptop) with Sign Blazer and same problem with the cut length being TOO LONG per setting.. I then put the old motherboard back in , what did I have to lose, right? put back together, set everything up to cut and .............BACK IN BUSINESS!!! Cutting like the first day used. GO FIGURE. Anyway THANK YOU ALL!!!! All this frustration over a tiny loose wire. Hope NOBODY has the aggravation that I went through this past couple of weeks over something so simple. DDUUUHHHH

    When using sign blazer, SC model 631E cutter, how to get cutter set correctly. It's showing Li-Lu SF631 with serial adapter /COM4. It's cutting but still cutting TOO LONG by about 4" set at 48" but cutting 54". Do I need to select another cutter? PLEASE ADVISE. It was suggested that I try another program but don't want to have to re-learn after using sign blazer so long. I uninstalled and re-installed SB and still same. H E L P !!!!
