I have it set at 500 for normal cutting,figured I start by setting at 250. Just did not know if that was to slow. Thanks.

Oh no not to slow.. There is a member here that i believe cuts everything on 100 speed

i run mine 90 to 100 all the time but if it is really fine i grab a new blade and go about 50.

That's what I run mine at also. I have went down to 30 on very small cuts.

What brand of cutter are yall using. I have the sc cutter and stay at 200

[Ravenwind / One Off Grafx 187]

871-MK2. If I am running 16"letters I will speed it up, other then that I like it to run slow.

On fine detail I have found that cutting slow is always best. There is a very little chance of missing areas and lifting vinyl. The few more seconds it takes saves the time having to do the job over. Less detailed work and larger cutting can be done faster.

And most cutters use their own scale for rating speed so you really need to compare within the same product line to get an accurate mark. Just remember that small and slow go hand in hand.
