    Ticking me off. Cutter Stops

    Yes I think that is what I'm going to do. Been's I have had this cutter for over 2 years and only had a problem 1 other time and a new cable seemed to fix it that time. I'm going to replace my USB connector on the cutter. I'm checking into the part today. I seem to think that will fix my problem been's there seems to be play in the plug on my cutter.

    Cause the Keyspan didn't work.

    Ticking me off. Cutter Stops

    It's more of a hobby than a business. We have a car garage and I have my cutter and stuff here just to have something to pass the time during the day when the phone is not ringing. I make smaller decals and now doing some HTV shirts, but nothing that's going to make me rich. $10 here $40 there type of stuff. But thanks for your input. I will keep it in mind if I start to see business picking up or if this cutter keeps going like it is.

    Ricoma Flat Press

    I got a Ricoma 601 MF for FREE so I can't complain. But my question is.. Can you adjust the height of the heat plate? I have googled and googled, I can't seem to find anything on it. It's an older heat press but like I said it was FREE and it still works. I've been making money off it. I just wanted to know if I can adjust the height. It's a swing arm. Info on the back is: Ricoma Model: HP-0601MF Thanks

    Adding Fonts to SCALP

    I'm sure this is dumb question and probably a easy one to answer, but here I go anyways.... Is there a easy way to add the fonts I download to SCALP other then adding them one by one every time I do a new design? Thanks in advance!!

    Adding Fonts to SCALP

    I will tell you that not ALL my fonts I add make it to SCALP. I don't know why, so I have gone back to adding them one by one.

    Making shirts pros/cons

    I myself do HTV right now. Since I already had a cutter and someone GAVE me a heat press so what do I have to loose. Comes in handy now when people call wanting a Birthday shirt made for their child. I'm loving it now. Don't get me wrong, I messed up a lot to start with. Not mirroring and sometimes putting the HTV in the wrong way. Though I got the hang of it now.

    Venting and Input

    Yes. The other lady told her if she got the vinyl & transfer tape she would do it for FREE! Not sure if she thought I would do the same... BUT she is dead WRONG!!! I'm pretty sure I will not gain her as a customer which is just fine with me!!!

    Venting and Input

    I'm needing to vent. My sister had a friend of her's call her wanting me to get in touch with her about making a sign for her. Let's just say the lady is named Lisa. Lisa has been using a lady that will letting her buy the stuff to make the signs and she would not charge Lisa to cut the vinyl. Long story short the lady takes to long for Lisa and she now wants to come to me for me to make all her signs and wall decals, BUT she still wants to buy everything and then me cut it. I do not like this idea nor do I want to waste my time in doing it, and I will NOT do it for free... Is that wrong of me? I also make shirts with HTV and I prefer to get the shirts myself vs someone bringing their own.

    Tell me if this sounded bad or mean lol.. I'm sorry it has took me so long to get back to you. I am booked like 3 weeks out with shirts. I'm sorry. But to give you a price would be hard beens my prices are set to my products. To throw a price out it would be at least $20.00.

    I know this said Lady very well. And I know what a pain in the tail she can be. As to why I don't want to even mess with her. I told my sister the day she called me that I didn't want to mess with it, but I called the girl anyway cause money is money. But when she told me the other vinyl lady had all her stuff and was doing it for free and she was going to give her another week to get her stuff done if not she was going to get it and get me to make it. I had my mind made up right then. Well yesterday she texted me and said the lady finished her sign but she didn't want to use her any more, she wanted me to make her a wall decal that says " Be`you` tiul" I still have not texted her back.

    Thanks everyone. I didn't think I was in the wrong for not wanting to do it. I mean thats to much to go meet her to get her vinyl & transfer tape. Then coming back putting the saying into my system then cutting, weeding & applying the tape. It's all to much. I feel that is how we make our money is in the vinyl, tape, and our time. She is a nut!

    Adding Fonts to SCALP

    Thanks!! This will explain why when I add SCALP to another computer it didn't have half the fonts my newer computer had.

    Cutter disconnecting

    Any clues as to what is wrong?? I have a US cutter SC plotter.. Of course its over a year old. I can be cutting something and in the middle of cutting my computer makes the sound as if something has been hooked up or disconnected. It started last week so I went out and got a new UBS cable and that fixed it for a week to this day. I have my rollers on cardboard "been this way for a year" as it said before that carpet can cause it to disconnect.. It's driving me CRAZY!!

    Cutter disconnecting

    Well I got the keyspan out the box and the cable that came with it... and ALL my LUCK it's the wrong cable! So I'm still going with USB right now till I get to Best Buy to buy a new cable.

    Cutter disconnecting

    Thanks for the info. I have bought the cables and the keyspan. Just got them in yesterday, but I do not have time to mess with them till Monday so fingers crossed. If it doesn't work I will be getting back in touch with you.
