  1. 2.) You selected the area between the 2 connected legs then you deleted the gray area then you clicked on Undo.  Why did you do this?

    I didn't realize that the black was a solid color, so I undid the delete so i could punch the grey are through the black to make a hole

    3.) You then selected that same area again then brought up the Color Select box and there was an X in the black and X on the White and the gray was ok

    4.) Took the X off of the Black

    did this to select both the grey areas and the black areas without the white

    5.) Clicked on Arrange - Weld - Punch through then closed the Color Select box - What exactly does this do?

    this punches a hole thrugh the black

    6.) Selected the area between the legs again and deleted the gray area. Why did you have to go back and select this area again?

    after punching a hole through the black you want to remove the part to show the empty space between the legs

    7.) Select the image click Arrange then Put to back - why did you do this?

    i selected the black part only and put this to the back because during the process of everything else some of the white areas got moved behind the black

    8.) Put a circle in then brought up the alignment - Why do you need the alignment? Can't you just place the circle anywhere within the image location?

    9.) Brought up the alignment again and put a white circle inside of the black circle and then aligned the white circle in the middle of the black circle and then duplicated the circle.  Why did you have to put a white circle in there?

    10.) You grouped the image and the circles all together

    the circles are for aligning the vinyl after it is cut. don't have to align them, i just like to have them centered. when you stack the circles you select them and use the punch tool to punch hole through the black circle. when you weed the black you will have a circle with another circle inside. you remove the inner circle so you have a black ring. when you wee the white you will have only a circle.

    11.) Click cut and a complete black image shows up

    12.) On the left of the screen you take the X off of the white and put an X on the Black and only the white pieces show up.  Were you showing me that with the white pieces showing up it would only cut the white and I should do that?

    with the black image shown, load your black vinyl and cut it. after that load your white vinyl, click the white on the left so the white shows up on the cut screen and then cut your white vinyl. weed both. apply app tape to the white. peel backing off. line up the white circles that are there in the center of the black ring and smooth you tape/white onto the black vinyl

    did you watch the video of the two layer decals??


  2. I can't speak for the espeed, but the Rockstar logo is fine.  I opened the .sbe file Mader posted, resized it only and cut it.  There are no errant nodes, etc.  It cut perfectly on my LP24.

    Then the Refine cutters have a problem. I did NOTHING to the .sbe Mader posted (no resize, nothing) and it cut jagged. If you look close the corners have nodes stacked on each other. When I deleted these extra nodes to just one per corner it cleared it up. The LP24 may deal with stuff like this better than the refines, but the extra nodes are there and do cause a problem at least as far as my cutter goes.

    But as far as cutting other files, mine does the same thing just not as noticeable. My buddy has an 871 and his cuts jagged just like Mader's. I'm not complaining about mine since it's not obvious, but we chose to buy lower end cutters and it looks like they put out lower end quality. Just need to buy higher quality I guess.


  3. what I need is the Tomahawk and the Hatchets wording not to overlap.For some reason it wouldn't let me weld them together.

    I guess I'm confused because there are two tomahawk words and two hatchet words. What item do you not want to overlap what item?

    Sorry, trying to help but I'm just not thinking straight today. Is this what you mean?

  4. Yep, photos are copywritten too, but Fivestar is thinking out of the box here. You can always hire a 3D-artist to make a few custom room that you can use over and over if you want something that's yours for life. Nothing fancy..just a basic room with some minimalist furniture...or just photograph a room (then it's your copyright) and re-use it.

    :) wonder if anyone knows a good artist that can do this. think i might have seen someone on here like that :)


  5. E speed? I have set the speed on the cutter from slow to fast and in setup in SBE all I see is Speed-Inch/Sec. and mine has 33.43 in it that is grayed out. (can't change it) This is in the Vinyl Size portion of the setup pop up box.

    press the setup button on your cutter and you will see the espeed setting. and i also tried files other than the rockstar logo. i knew it was messed up to start with.
