I need help with a couple of problems!

Recommended Posts

First is there a way to skip a pattern once cutting has already started?

I cut rather small patterns for jewelry and once in a while one is too small and it rips the vinyl apart, I was testing how small I could make certain patterns. One of the patterns did this and I just wanted to skip that pattern but I could not figure out how.

Second once in a while certain patterns have extra lines that are not there and cut all the way across my vinyl through all of my other work. How do I stop this and what am I doing wrong? In SB these do not show up until I start cutting.

Lastly, sometimes I just want to cut one small thing out at a time. Is there a way that when I cut out something else after cutting one item that I can move things in cut mode so they wont cut all the way to the end over what I just did? So far I just waste a couple of inches of vinyl, which I hate doing and cut a whole new section.

Thanks,

Angus

One of the patterns did this and I just wanted to skip that pattern but I could not figure out how. Once you start cutting, you can pause but not skip items. You would have to stop and start cutting again.

Second once in a while certain patterns have extra lines that are not there and cut all the way across my vinyl through all of my other work. How do I stop this and what am I doing wrong? In SB these do not show up until I start cutting. I would try looking at the item in Node Edit and see if there are extra lines or nodes you can't see.

Lastly, sometimes I just want to cut one small thing uttonout at a time. Is there a way that when I cut out something else after cutting one item that I can move things in cut mode so they wont cut all the way to the end over what I just did? You can take the machine offline then use the arrow keys to move the cutter to where you want to start the next item. Hit the "Home" or "Origin" button to reset where your cutter will start.

So far I just waste a couple of inches of vinyl, which I hate doing and cut a whole new section.

Angus
