haha well just lazy looking for it, but still the logo is easy to make. but the problem isnt about making the logo, but when cutting it the white part was bigger than the black part. @coaster i didnt use any alignment mark since i was cutting black and white separated, when installing, i would install the black then the white and it should fit, in the vector, they fit each other, but when cutting, the white one was cut a little bigger than black one, the file cowboy uploaded they seem to fit each other, but since the black one doesnt have the white part cut out, it would be a 2 layered logo instead of one and "i think" the more layers, the more easy they will peel when cleaning the window.... right?
-
well there is only one problem, i only wanted it 1 layered, not put the white one on the black one the file u attached me seems like it would fit perfectly, i dont know since in the black one wasnt the cut of the white part

How do you price?
Dragonduster replied to Dragonduster's topic in Business Practices, Sales and Pricing, etc.
well from my calculations, its only 1 cent for vinyl and transfer. i am very bad with prices, when i go to someone's home to repair their PC, i charge them like $8 to $13, i have only charged someone $25 because i did a full maintenance to their pc and had to buy the compressed air can. since the sticker is only 1 color, there is not much work, and weeding depending on the image, some are hard, some are easy, like the Miku one i did, its a 22"x23" and was thinking to sell it for about $7.69, i asked in a shop here how much they charge for a vinyl cut and they told me 22" x 1 yrd is $8.43 =\ i dont know if thats for the cut only but its kinda cheap, if i price my stuff higher, i doubt i will be able to get jobs =\ (i live in Mexico btw in the border to USA) -

hahaha not saying i will sell them for that, i will sell them for at least $1.50 for a sticker that cost me 1 cent, and the 1 sq ft that cost me 35 cents, i will sell it for around $6 -
or cut it with signblazer and u can put the same design 60 times (there is an option for that) and it will cut them, thats how i cut my 12 2" stickers of a 24" vinyl

i use ACDsee and i can watch them in full screen

wow very nice one =D mind sharing the eps? and what size is it?
-
yes, i was messing with the settings but never checked about nodes, was just looking how the image was coming out and which one was better looking . from distance (1 ft away) looks good but closer u can see the little weavy

restock of seal it pen would be fine =\ i almost ended buying from another website because they had it and was buying other material since i was buying from them already and some sqeegee bigger than 4"..... like 12"? -
very nice work!! and as jay said, the color of the car changed but i guess is because of the light?
-
when you say clean, do you mean remove the dots that are everywhere? because i did that while watching the vector, it looks fine, but when i click in the nodes, there is a ton of them

well i think they use the 24" vinyl one, i dont know what vinyl they use and the customers here wont care much (at least most of them, they are all cheaps ) i just called them to know the prices so i can set mine, selling almost 6 sq ft for $8.5 with transfer and all i think =\ my vinyl is 24" but when i cut, i get my images up to 23" max, since when i do that, it almost goes all the way to the edge of the vinyl, sometimes i think it will cut my cutter's plastic =\ -

=\ the prices of vinyl here is so cheap!! 22"x 1 yard is like $8.5, i cant really get much with those prices for big stores here i know i can give them cheaper, but i wouldnt get that much of profit =\ -

thanks, that helps. the cost of the oracal 651 is 1 cent for 2"x2" for 1 color (thats very cheap!!!) so i guess i will have to increase the price a lot, as for 1 sq feet is 35 cents (without application tape of course) so i guess i can get a lot of profit with this =D thanks for the tips -

i know that, but if they ask you a decal of 2 color, how much would you charge? 70 cents or 45 cents or how much for the added color? thats my question -
thanks to Slice&Dice for helping me, i finally made my first cut successful with my SC cutter, the only problem i had is to remove the vinyl's cut from inside the vinyl and while i was removing the big part of the vinyl, i took some small cuts that were in the nose of the dragon, the only way i found to remove those little cuts were with a vinyl, sticking to them then removing them, was hard since the lines are small and hard to not stick the vinyl on them, at first i wasnt sure about the cutter, but after watching this cut, im glad i bought this one, will move to graphtec if i get the money =D
-
this helps a lot since sometimes i get small cuts in my fingers trying to put them in place again

well i hate all the pedophiles too, i just cant stand child abuse or people that mistreat children, i love childrens (the good way) and im loved by them (at least the ones i play with and get to know me) most of the people i know makes fun with gays stuff but that doesnt mean we cant be friends with gays or that we hate gays, its a way to have fun make friends pedobear is only to mock pedophiles, if someone stick it in a car, it doesnt mean they are pedophiles, i have told all the kids i know to never go inside a car of someone they dont know, even if they know, they should only enter a car of their family only and having a pedophile stick in a car wont make a difference, also i dont think any pedophile would use pedobear in their car, that would just be too stupid, but who knows, the world is full of many kind of people. also i dont do stuff that i think its bad and would harm anyone
-
hahaha thanks, this will do
-
this is very late but anyone still have the pedobear EPS? =\

i just finished assembling it and from what i saw in a video, it said to ground it, but i dont see any cable to ground it, i have the SC serie of 34" and there is no cable coming from the cutter or from the package to ground it, do i need to purchase a separated cable or i wont need the ground cable?
-
i will try it with the Li-Yu HF-1202 driver and use the serial cable, my pc has it so i will just test it. EDIT: dammig!! my pc doesnt have serial anymore lol
