  1. Hi Fellas,

    Never done a line this long. It's 72" x 7.

    I was wondering how to apply this, so it comes out straight along the body line.

    I'm using a copam 2500 for cutting and am not sure if I should order a 15" roll of black and cut it in one piece

    or order a 24" roll and split it up. What would cut better?

    Not sure how accurate the Copam can pull back the material to start cutting inside the letters.

    As for the cake, I'm familiar with reg marks in flexi, but have only done it once with a smaller logo.

    I would just cut the two colors and lay over each other on the van, right?

    Using clear packing tape on the reg marks?

    Any input is highly appreciated ;)

  2. Thanks, I wouldn't hesitate buying a 24" roll, but I can't find shorter than 100 yds.

    Here is a layout I did in Flexi for the cust to review.

    I was considering the center hinge application for the mainline.

    Any suggestions appreciated.

  3. Hi all ,

    I have a 22" by 80" headline to do on a van, using 651 pink.

    All I have is TransferRite Ultra 16" by 50yds and clear Rtape conform 14" by 50yds, but they have been on the shelf for over three years now.

    Tested both and they work well, pretty sticky still.

    Should I buy 24" and what brand?

    Also, haven't done anything that long. Should I hinge in the middle?

    Thanks, Pepe


  4. Thanks soundmasterx,

    And thanks for the offer.

    I was trying to vectorize this jpg image, but the circled areas broke up.

    I could reinforce these in Photoshop, but I'd like to fix the nodes on the vector image in flexi.

    Is there any way to fuse the nodes so that the lines reconnect ?

    Than I would like to outline the image, separate both layers, cut the base layer in white and stick the black image on top.


  5. Hi fellow cutters,

    Has anyone purchased the Flexi 8 extreme training DVD on ebay or elsewhere?

    I saw some selling for $79.

    Did you learn a lot from it?

    I can't find much training on youtube.

    I'm interested in learning how to create two color designs, weld logos with type and repair

    vectorized images (node editing).

    I know how to use the pen tool in Photoshop, but Flexi is very different.

    Thanks, Patrick


  6. Hi guys,

    I'm doing this for a friend for free and was wondering how I could get the color out and just the black outlines cuttable on flexi 8.1.

    The black would be cut and airbrushed and than freehand the colors in.

    I'd appreciate if anyone can tell me how or do it for me if it's a quickie.

    Thanks a lot, Pepe
