  1. Goose the grips were not that bad. After I blasted everything else I weeded the grips and taped a piece of the fiber glass screen that is used for windows

    over the grips and blasted them. You need to lower your pressure because the screen is just laid over the area

    Neat trick will have to remember that. Used a similar process with lace etc. with paint.


  2. I got in to it because I wanted a sign made out of vinyl for my Business.

    I went and priced a signs at a few places and was amazed at the prices they wanted for a few double sided 4'x8' metal  signs said to myself  "Self buy a cutter and make your own signs for about the same money as the couple of signs I needed."

    I used to paint signs for a bunch of the local Churches.I play around with custom paint on cars and bikes. And thought I could use a cutter to layout the masks instead of using straight line tape and a razor and free handing all the designs.

    Well once people found out I had the equipment I got requests for relettering a  few box trucks and signs etc. The machine paid for it's self in the first month. Having been in the computer and graphic design biz the software part was a breeze.
