If doing a perforated cut, wouldn't that require a carrier sheet, just to make sure that a) there's a good surface under the blade to make the cut, instead of the forgiveness an trough would allow, and b) so that the material will no accidentally snag on blade from 'popping' up from being cut? Sorry, I don't do perforated cuts, so I'm just trying to get a better grasp of this.

why aren't you using the blade holder to be situated over the cutting strip?

Nice! Thank you for posting your 'work around,' no doubt your answer will help someone in the future.

Power supply or main board. Was there a recent power outage?

I will look into that. Thanks for the suggestion.

If I can get it to me under $12 per piece, that would be something I'd consider. Right now, I'm considering trying to order 50ish pieces, then will probably need to have it freight forwarded it to me.

Any one have recommendations on where to get aluminum sign blanks, preferably white? I'm specifically looking for 18" x 12" x 0.032. 0.040 if 0.032 isn't available. I only have one supplies shop locally, and they are super pricey, so I'm lookin to just pick-up blanks, and keep them in stock myself. Thanks in advance!

This was the closest I could find.

Welcome back!

Welcome to the forum. Thank you for signing up. Glad you were able to figure out an aswer on your own. Thank you for posting your solution, as I'm sure it will help future users. If I may ask - what software, and platform (Win or Mac) you're using?

Welcome to the forum. I encourage you to register as a user, then your post(s) will not need to wait for a moderator to clear it. I think I understand what you're trying to do. What you need to do is to color the different layers by different colors, then just cut by color. If I didn't interpret your concern correctly, then I ask that you post a picture or two of what's happening, so that other forum members can try to assist you.

Thank you for registering. Have you tried to select any of the MH cutters on the list and sent a test job to the cutter? There are many cutters out there that can run utilizing a different cutter designated in the settings.

DLB2 - Cutters will only cut vector lines, so if your circle, arrows and text are not vector, you cutter will not do a thing. I'd also encourage you to register with the forum, so that you're posts will go up immediately and not be in queue waiting for a moderator to approve it.

Did you computer do a Windows update?
