  1. Something like this I guess???
  2. I have a continuous pattern, say zebra stripe or honey comb but simply want to cut out a square that is 10"x8" and a bounding box around that.

    Vehicle Wrap Horror Stories??

    Nope! Expectation should be high (depending on the price you paid for the wrap). I've done almost 100 full wraps now and panel alignment is key, it's like having your car painted but the doors are different shades of the color that the quarter panels are.

    Adhesive backed flouresent foil?

    Very similar but in flouresent colors...weird application
  5. Hey y'all, I've seen it somewhere but I'm looking for an actual metalic film (not vinyl) to cut some designs out of. Not looking for hot stamping or heat applied foils but something similar that can be cut on a plotter. Thanks!
  6. Ok guys (and gals), I am looking to expand my side business (I'm a full time grad student, part time wrap installer, and I started this as a way to help my boys, both with Down syndrome, to learn a work ethic and to help pay for some extra services they need. Everything we do is with 3m 5100 series reflective and I want to take over the cutting that is currently subbed out. Budget is a huge concern and I almost pulled the trigger a couple times on a 28" SC (I do have a mac) but I know how quite the servo motors are in comparison (sensory issues with the boys and the ability to cut after they go to sleep) and I'm basically wondering if I should wait to see if a 28" Titan 2 pops up in the refurbished section... that would really stretch the budget next month but would it be worth it?

    Plotter suggestions wanted

    Got it on eBay with the stand for $379! The longest we run is 72" and the downforce seemed good. Any suggestions for some 60° blades? It's been 7 years since I've cut anything...brushing off the ole Inkscape skills right now.
