RPM Graphics 6 Posted March 13, 2011 I am cutting some 2 color LAYERED vehicle lettering for a work truck. I have been using some ROUND marks, but wondered if SQUARE marks are easier to match up. Who is using which ones and why? Thanks......Pat..... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
AshComputers 197 Posted March 13, 2011 I use the square ones. It's easy for me to line it up. But it's a personal preference though. I can line up my work in a snap using square. Try it both ways to see how you like it though. I'm not to much on circles, I can line the points up on the squares very fast and easy Hope this helps Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
prestonservco 26 Posted March 13, 2011 A circle won't show that you're off 10 degrees. So, when using a circle, you need to align two at a time. Not a huge deal, just a point. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

RPM Graphics 6 Posted March 13, 2011 Thank you all for the quick replies. I actually tried the circles before posting and about half of them did not line up. Have to re-cut stuff, big bummer.... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
