    Design software

    Okay so I have been watching a BUNCH of vinylmaster youtube videos. I am pretty much sold. I love some of the tools they offer. NOW which version will give me the most tools without Unneeded features?? My operation is ONLY cut, plotted vinyl. I would like any feature that can help me but don't want to spend extra money for features that do me no good. Thanks in advance guys. You have been a big help.

    Design software

    Let me rephrase. I have been doing vinyl decals and signs for a couple years. I can do art work. I'm just not the most talented expieriance designer like some of you may be. I can weld, touch up line work, and do basic style designs. I just wanna step my game up now that I'm further investing and venturing out into the heat transfer world.

    Design software

    I am expanding my vinyl decal business and adding heat transfer as well. I am looking for some software that will help me design more professional looking graphics. I still just use sure cuts a lot for my decals. But I want to step up into something better. Something user friends. I'm not looking for something like photoshop to design from nothing. I would like more tools, art, designs and stuff I can build instead of starting from nothing. Any help would be great. Remember USER FRIENDLY!! Thanks in advance

    What is your favorite clamshall heat press??

    I am currently looking a a Hotronix 16" x 16" clamshell. Decided to spend a little more money to get a quality machine. I like the easy open feature and it seems very helpful that it gives a nuematic value for your pressure to make sure you are consistent with your pressure.
  6. Looking to expand from decals to start doing tshirts and hoodies. I've been doing research and I am pretty sure I want a clamshell style. I would like to stay under 1000 dollars but I also want something that is going to yield a quality product so I am open to different prices. Thanks in advance guys!!

    New from Ohio LOOKING FOR REVIEWS!!

    I have been doing vinyl decals on my US Cutter plotter for almost 2 years now. I decided I want to get a heat press and start expanding into doing t shirts. What do I need to looks for? What are some things to stay away from? What brands and size press are you guys using? What brand vinyl and what thicknesses or things of that sort do I need to look for. I have ONLY done plotted vinyl decals with oracal 651 so far. I am a new to anything else. THANKS in advance! !
