anyone else have one of these? I got one last week from a friend for free, didn't expect it to work at all. I bought a blade holder and a usb to serial cable(radio shack) and just put everything together tonite. I must say I am impressed, it is quieter and seems to be more accurate than my Pcut. I just cut letter that were .215 tall, something I could not do with my pcut, and they came out great! If this thing keeps cutting like this the pcut might be for sale soon. I have no idea how old this thing is, but it is decent shape. Is there anything to look out for with this machine?

I saw some where a while ago that there is a way to convert or add a laser to the pcut. I'm thinking of trying to find a laser that will fit in the forward most blade holder. anyone done this?

Contour cut laserpoint

What software are you using? Flexistarter(8.6 or 10) is worth it's weight in gold if you plan on doing any printing. -
Make sure you are starting with a high resolution(150 or greater)my wf1100 does the same thing at 72 dpi looks like crap. 150 and above look great, but take forever to print with flexistarter(had one the other day that took over a half hour just to start printing).

+1 on Lynda.com it's awesome and well worth the money. -
usb or serial connection? I get this when I switch usb ports and forget to change it in production manager.

It will cost you if you steal from the major leagues!

Those actually sound very reasonable. -
I design in Photoshop, import into flexi, then contour and have never had any issues.

Make sure there is absolutely no wax on the suface. the slightest bit of wax will cause it to fail.

I have a brand new legal version of 8.6 that I just got with a new cutter that is for sale. let me know if you are interested.

just my .02: If you cannot make your own logo, you might be in the wrong business. There are alot of great people on this forum, but I doubt any of them will be willing to go this far. Post what you have so far, and people will help you - but to expect someone to do it for you is pretty ballsy.

wasn't sure how the ciss worked, I use the refillable carts and have only had that one minor issue.
-
I had a similar issue, change the cartridge out and it fixed it.
-
you should give flexistarter a try. worth every penny when it comes to contour cutting. I believe the issue you are having would be solved by using the four reg mark system.

I have an extra copy of flexi 8.6 with contour cut if you are interested, I live in Palmyra. I got this last week when I had to replace my broke cutter.

my 870 just died, but I got it used and don't know how old it was. I gladly bought another one, and will fix the dead one and use it as a spare.

that is with out the chain, if I remember correctly.

I found a place in Florida, that has them for $1 a piece with chain. I am at work now, when I get home I will get you their website. They were double sided white, and come out awesome with the cobra hi temp inks.

I use the Iso on both surfaces. AS far as the homemade app juice, I believe you only want a couple of drops of soap not squirts.
