  1. Right now i run a small sign shop as a side job and i gain more and more business. I started with a cheap cutter and signblazer. I used that for the first 3.5 years and finally decide to upgrade my cutter. I bought the uscutter titan 2 28". About the same time i started thinking about upgrading my software and i ended up buying Vinylmaster Ltr. The problem is i find my self doing more and more jobs that involves tiling. Ltr does not including tiling so i have just duplicated the objects cut them in half and then matched them back up. My question is.......i'v never had the tiling feature so is it worth it or is the way i'm doing it now going to be almost the same? Is upgrading to vinylmaster pro worth the $275? i've tried to look at the differences between the two and nothing really sticks out that i need. But i'm fairly new and self trained thru youtube so there might be a whole lot of new tools that i'm missing out on that could make my life alot easier? Any input on this subject would be appreciated!

    VinylMaster vs. Signblazer

    thank you sir! i just know some stuff is limited on signblazer and want a more up to date software. My little vinyl cutter that i bought to do my racecar decals has not become a second job. i have more and more people coming to me for signs and decals. I just looking into the future

    Windows 10

    I know this has been discussed and discussed but i still cant get it straight. I had a dell laptop with vista on it. I just bought a HP with windows 10 on it. I downloaded everything and then went into signblazer and made sure all the settings were the same as on my other laptop. Everything works fine except when i go to cut and i get the error initializing cutter. I have tried every port on the laptop and switched everyone in the setup menu = output device box. Here is my question the only difference in signblazer in the two laptops is in the setup menu. the output drop down box has Blazer LPT 1-4, Blazer COM 1-4. The only difference is my older laptop has USB001-3. i feel like this is why im getting the message and that i'm not in the right port but i dont't know how to get the USB00 ports to show up. Is this a windows 10 problem? Is this something i can do and get those ports to show up? i use the same cutter for as the setup as my old laptop so i'm at a stand still. i have read every thread and could and have done everything it says but nothing works i would appreciate any help!!!

    The car sides are white and roof and hood are black everything else is vinyl. I used orcal 951. Worked great around rivets and seams. Like I said that's the first time doing anything like that.a wrap prolly be easier but besides the time I had less than $200.
