bamafan2277 50 Posted March 25, 2010 Punched means it has the little holes on the ends. Kinda like the old dot matrix printer paper that had the holes on the side. It's made for cutters with the track feed. You will lose about .5" for the holes on the vinyl so you will have 14.5" of cutting area. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
c.broyles 4 Posted March 25, 2010 Thanks, ill probably just order the 24X10 roll instead. i just didn't want to waste vinyl with a bigger roll. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
bamafan2277 50 Posted March 25, 2010 for the price per square inch the 24" is a good value for your money. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Jay2703 704 Posted March 26, 2010 for the price per square inch the 24" is a good value for your money. It all depends on wether you use the other 9 inches or not. I use mostly 15" for everything. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
prestonservco 26 Posted March 26, 2010 I mostly use 24". I'm real careful to position the graphic to waste as little vinyl as possible. If I do waste, I try to make the waste piece a size/dimension that can be used for a smaller project. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
c.broyles 4 Posted March 26, 2010 Thanks, i order my cutter vinyl and transfer paper all at once so i can get it at the same time. i'll check with signwarehouse on material for later on. are they a pretty good company to get supplys from? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
tlzimmerman 11 Posted March 26, 2010 My personal experience with signwarehouse has not been a good one....they flubbed up a couple of my orders...and seem dead set on calling me and shipping everything to frank when my name is Thomas......even though they have told me its been corrected 3 or 4 times now. My experience doesn't necessarily jive with the experience of some others however. My money goes to Fellers for supplies...you have to call them for an account, but they have great customer service.
