when i send the design (its a rectangle with the corners rounded) to cut it will always finish like in the picture (red circle) and the line should cut where the green line goes, i did a test cut (from the machine) and it made the square and diamond shape cut fine, i checked the design and its fine, i tried with the pen and plain paper and the drawing was correct, i checked with cutting pressure with 800g, 400g, 200g, 45g and all finish the same, i have always used redsail but tried liyu with the same end i dont know what may cause this since the design is fine, doing a test cut is fine and everything i try ends fine, but when i start to cut the job, it ends like that. i have the SC uscutter machine and using SignBlazer v6.0.5

machine wont cut as desired
Dragonduster replied to Dragonduster's topic in SC Series Vinyl Cutter Discussions
my cutter is a SC UScutter and i read that i should use liyu drivers (before it was redsail) with signblazer. the exposed blade is fine as i checked that from the start and doing the cut tests i barely saw the marks in the backing paper. "add a little over cut in your cutting software." i havent made this but i think i should try this too.- 5 replies

I bought this action tac from uscutter a Long time ago and i want to use it with a screen protector of my smartphone so i can place it correctly but since i bought it more than 5 years ago, will it still work the same?

i was making a decal in 2 parts, the first one was cut fine, but in the second part, when i try to cut it, it will make 2 diagonal lines making that part useless and it doesnt cut it like i want. i have used the drivers of RedSail RS1120C (been using this all the time) and Copam CP2500 but i still get that line cut (attaching image of the cut) i am attaching the file here too to see if someone can figure out whats wrong with it (i made the size smaller so i can upload it, but i am cutting it to the size around 64 x 35". I am using a uscutter SC serie cutter. Untitled-2.eps

paper that looks like frosted vinyl (or etched glass)
Dragonduster posted a topic in Other Materials
Here where i work, a guy was installing a paper that looks like frosted glass, its not vinyl (doesnt feel like vinyl when i touch it) and as far as i know, the price of the vinyl here is around $7.50 a meter, the frosted vinyl is very expensive compared to that and the guy installing it said it was paper, anyone knows about it? Or is there a cheaper vinyl brand that sells frosted vinyl? Thanks. -

I use ..... forgot name, it's the one that doesn't has support anymore and is free, with element in the name. I have the cd of corel 3 or 5, forgot it, came with the plotter. I wanted to cut and ship them so im not the one installing and the customers would have trouble installing them. -

Pricing for 40" x 14" + vectorizing
Dragonduster posted a topic in Business Practices, Sales and Pricing, etc.
I know someone (not really a friend, just went together to a language class) that wants this image (attached) in vinil. how much should i charge for this image (in 6 colors) and the vectorizing? i used a tool here and it says $155 but thats kinda high price i think. -

My Pricing Calculator
Dragonduster replied to huntrjo's topic in Business Practices, Sales and Pricing, etc.
i think if u put 1 in the QTY with 5H and 37W, complex 8, 1 color, u would need to put a 1 in 36" since its bigger than normal ones, that way it will give your $35 + 15 since its bigger than 36", if you use the 23", you will get a +14, if you put a 1 in both 23" and 36", that means you have 2 decals, that would mean 2 in QTY. you need to fill the column A to E (mandatory), then if its a specialty vinil, or the decal is smaller than 6x6 or you use fluorecence color, add a 1 below it, if its bigger than 23" but smaller than 36", add a 1 below the 23", if its bigger than 36" add a +1 below it, its easy to understand =) Please correct me if i am wrong- 40 replies

the tittle says it all, just the vinyl, non cut vinyl, as there has been a thread about how long it will last WITH the app tape already. Thank you.
