not sure what to say then, kind of crazy really

I don't know much about Signcut itself, but maybe try a different file format? pdf, ai, svg, something like that? If you need it converted to any of those, let me know.

What is the center that you are referring to that is missing? It all appears to be there to me.

So we're finally getting a printer. It's coming with UV ink. I've read about half and half it seems as to whether or not to use this kind of ink to print banners, or vinyl. I'd like to hear everyone's opinion as to why, or what to use, or just anything to help me understand what the difference in these inks are. Thanks

We've recently been asked to do some lettering for our fire department. They have a maltese cross currently that we don't have. I was hoping that someone out there had this one they could share.

Thanks for the help, that's much better than what I was coming up with for a trace. That photo was about the biggest I could post on here, had to shrink it by about 75% before it was small enough to post.

I've got several, just not one that looks like the attached one. Was hoping to be able to keep consistency.

I understand that everyone says to use translucent vinyl on a lighted sign, but what are the problems with using Oracal 651?

We just came across a really good deal on a Vinyl Express Q100, which we understood is pretty much the Graphtec fc7000, it uses the same driver and everything. Upgraded our MH-721. Problem is, we can't seem to get it set up correctly, it lifts the corners of the vinyl where it's cutting. Lowering the force gets rid of that problem a little, but then it's almost not completely cutting through the vinyl. This cutter has so many options and settings that are way above and beyond our 721, but as of now, we have to cut with the 721 since it does a better job. I know that can't be the truth, anyone have any idea on how to properly set up this cutter? Any and ALL help would be greatly appreciated.

New blade was something we were thinking about anyway as the cutter came with TintTek blades, wasn't sure how they would work on vinyl. Current settings are somewhere around 20 force, 15 speed, 3 quality, and 8 offset with an "other" blade. Cutting strip was looking kinda weird, we were thinking about replacing it.

I'm needing about 100 coozies printed for a friends wedding. Kinda hard to explain, but she wants the kind that are foam, but rigid and already round, not the ones that can be flattened. Simple 1 color design, we will supply artwork, shipped to zip 37166. If you could email me at cmwyke@gmail.com. Thanks.

If you don't really have the money for a graphtec, what cutter would you guys recommend someone to buy?
-
If anyone can point me in the right direction here it would be great. All I'm looking for is some simple handlebars off of like a roadster motorcycle. maybe with brake handles. thanks in advance.

thanks, grabbed that as well

thanks, grabbed the file as well.

Our latest job, a cleaning van. The biggest job we've done yet.

dafont.com has some fonts that are kanji, not sure how well they look, nor how popular they are though.

I saw a wood plank font on a vehicle the other day that I really liked, but i can't seem to find it anywhere. I wish I would have gotten a picture of it, would make things much easier. I've found several, just not one like that one. Something like driftwood, burnstow, etc... The biggest difference I've noticed is that the one I saw, the comma was a nail. It looked pretty cool. Anyone have any idea what this font could be?
-
burnstown dam looks pretty darn close. I checked on dafont and guess I just missed that one. Thanks a bunch.
-
the Destino Electric looks alot like a Blade Runner font. http://www.steinschneider.com/bladerunner/BRFont.htm has it for download.

This. We priced our stuff just barely under the local sign shop. This guy we hooked up because he talks to quite a few people, but all we really did from our normal pricing was give him free installation. As for the white line, we did a wet install on site for that. We've found it's easier to do mulitlayer like that on site during the install rather than beforehand.
-
how are you guys pricing this that you are coming up with $400+ for cost??
