I just cut the window decal for there shop for there store front !!! it took 38 min to cut on the cutter

So.. tomorrow the wife will be weeding it lol

and the big one is 40 inches by 22 inches

There windows are 37 inch by 48 inch so..

Hey SeeJay, you need to step it up... on that weeding time. Your losing money, BUT great job. I can do 2 of these in about 70-80 minutes. ..each 77" x 20" left and right. These put you thru your paces. I use a needle, pointed tweezers and an exacto knife.

I am a full time EBAY store only. a couple classified ads on the side. It supports me very well. I have a niche' in vehicle graphics. People love the detailed unusual ones. My 8ft table came from Menards. You probably have them up there. Menards started in Wisconsin area I believe. I just love that store. Great work from you and your wife. Sorry, I have permission to make the wizard, he was purchased from a graphic designer I know. It takes alot of memory in a cutter, to cut a design like that. I always cut things in no hurry. Mine was cut on a Graphtec. In probably about 15-20 minutes.

I only have the MH 721

I started my business for 14 months with a 30" Seiki, cutting the same designs I do now. You need to find a niche'. Or some really great designs. My sales are mostly full side vehicle decals. 8-12 ft long. left and right. I do very little text. and all I do is vinyl.

I don't do shirts, or anything else like that. I just keep stepping up the niche' I have. I have thousands of designs, that I just keep switching around and see what sells.

Looks like that was some original artwork by that shop Lawman.... Tho in vectoring the artwork it may have used a little more time cleaning up since most of the edges are very rounded and not refined including the text.... Would have been too much time to invest however. Great work!!!!

I don't blame you at all... That artwork would have take HOURS... among HOURS to make look fabulous.... But there is a fine line between the customer and their satisfaction and our perfectionist sides....
