and will either import jobs created with Sign Blazer? Time for a software upgrade, saw a feature I liked with Vinylmaster weeding not only drew a box around text but split the box down the center of text. Do both do that?

Thanks, will try it tonight

Been using our MH871 with SignBlazer for years. A few months ago, I took the free upgrade to Windows 10 and the old installation of SignBlazer I had stopped functioning. Un-installed it and installed the Version 6.0 Basic, worked setup Roland PNC1000 and Blazer COM3 - USB Serial Port and cut a few stickers, worked great and no more registration request every time I opened it. Put the cutter away for a few months and got the bug to cut some more stickers. Now it goes through the process, the progress bar works, but cutter is not moving. Turned cutter off and moved the head, no jamb, tried it from another computer and the same results. Unplug the cable and Windows gives the device disconnected sound, plug in and ding ding, but still not working. Attached an image showing settings, any and all help will be appreciated.

I did not, it worked the first time, where do I get Win10 drivers?

Notice that when I unplug the cutter from the computer the port disappears, plug it in and the port comes back.

I understand how to do layered shadows and have a clue how to do just a shadow without the overlay. Here's my question. I want to do layered fonts, a larger character with a proportional character over the top so the shadow or outline shows equally all the way around the inside character. Clear as Mud? Let me know if I need to describe the effect better. Also are there shadowed (2 part) fonts available? or are these all done with overlays?

Like the subject says..... If you could only afford one set of ink, would you buy Chromablast or Sublijet ink? When we can buy another set and want to switch between poly and cotton shirts, anyone have any experience with switching cartridges from one type to the other, or do you have two printers???

Any idea where to buy these at a good price?

Thinking about doing t-shirts and micro-fiber shirts with sailing and kayak / kayak fishing graphics. Looking for a good source of inexpensive (or free) graphic collections with nautical themes, pirates, sailboats, sailing artwork, kayak artwork, skiff & kayak fishing. Public Domain or Royalty Free if possible.

I ran out of email address's to use and purchased. You have to tweek the settings a bit to get what you got from the website. Personally I would have rather had a subscription to the website, but I got the software working great now and get what I expected.

I was thinking more stuff like this, but $199/month @ shutterstock is way to rich for my scemes.

Ths is a factory logo direct from them. If you look at the sailboat on the right, there are LOTS of lines that just criss cross the whole image. Could someone help me just outline the image so that it doesn't get cut up into a zillion pieces? THANKS JOhn ><> hobie-sailboats-script-red-full.eps

The site does not exist anymore. Anyone have a copy of this to share?

Sorry for not getting back to you. I din't get email notification of your post, probably my fault. I will take a loot at it in the morning Thanks JOhn ><>

Got an email this morning from USCutter advertizing SureCutsAlot Pro. anyone using it? I have Sign Blazer and others, but the thing that attracted me was it's vectorization feature. That's where my skills lack the most. Is it worth $50? JOhn ><>

The problem is getting the vinyl to stick to dacron sails. Standard vinyl just doesn't stay stuck very long. Would be similar to lettering an EZ-UP pop up tent. I tried mine and could not get the vinyl to stick to that at all. JOhn ><>

I am looking for either dacron or vinyl that will stay adheared to boat sails (semi-permanent) that can be cut with my MH871. Standard Calenarded (cheep) vinyl sticks (sorta) but even a year later peels right off with no effort. I figure out in the wind and rain and flexing of the sail, the stuff will peel right off. I have looked at places like sailrite.com and they have dacron self adhesive materials, but they sell it by the yard 54" wide and I am not sure I can cut it. Boat sails are generally made of dacron, mylar or mylar/carbon fiber

I have a job to do, but the building owner doesn't want vinyl letting, they want the tenents sign in their windows to be static clings. I can only do 8.5 X 11 and I need closer to 11" X 17" or 20" X 29" I don't have a die sub printer either so the standard HP cling sheets don't hold the color very well. This is only ONE sign right now, may be more to come later anyone up to this? I have the graphic in .svg or .eps format. JOhn ><>

I use it, but almost out of email address for the free trial. Wish I did enough work to warrant the purchase. I never know, I can go months without the need, then BANG I could use it every day, then off again for another few months.

JM Marine is located in a very popular location, however the brick faced building does not draw the retail business customers it needs to sell it's marine products because the building flat does not look like a retail store. See the Photoshopped picture below to get an idea of what we need. Here's what we need: Either a banner printed or a large wrap that looks like about 8 - 12 feet of store front windows 8' - 10' high. SERIOUSLY We want to stretch the banner or wrap over a frame and attach it to the front of the building so it looks like a glass retail storefront. We will then frame in our neon OPEN sign so that it appears to be in the window. We already have permission from our landlord to do this Please respond with pricing and options for this project.

I didn't realize the picture was so large. As you can see I did a lousy PS on this image, need clean windows and if possible retail parts store and or boat store reflection in the windows. Thanks Again
