I am an Un-Employed College Instructor that teaches Drawing, Life Drawing, Photoshop, Illustrator, and Quark. I also have an Airbrush company that specializes in RC Painting as well as an RC Mobile track that i provide RC Racing 3 times a month. I occasionally get really cool Graphics gigs when i freelance, but this time, im learning a new trade to further educate myself so here i am!

Thankyou Everyone! Jenny...i hear what ur saying about distracting your eye. Im glad it got your attention. Here is the Controller Jeny. rcRadio.eps rcRadio.eps

I had one, my chinese press was a musical playing one. Now my Mighty Press just beeps. LOL..mine plays a tune to...and i kinda dig the tune. =)

Hello Pamalicious! hehe that name Rocks!

He basically had to REDRAW the whole image using the PENTOOL. Here is one of Many, many tutorials on the pentool and how to use one. http://dx-xel.net/2007/07/illustrator-tutorial-how-to-use-pen.html

DUDE...im there! Do you have xfire? Its free at www.xfire.com it is a good program to see where ur friends are playing and u can join the server they are in through xfire. no more getting the ip, etc.

jackie, I am sure there are suppliers from your area, but here is one by me. They can pretty much give you any substrate you want. http://www.sign-mart.com/shopping/subdept.asp?dept_id=4&sub_dept_id=71

rule of thumb: Formula: x=size of cutter -2" so, (x+24"=22) therefore: 15" cutter=13" cutting space. 24" cutter=22" cutting space. Give or take +/- .5".

He is half Jamaican so he is sporting the FRO @ 2 years old. Love that 'lil booger! 44 was my football number in HS and college so i had to do a 44 for him. The evil dead face was something done back in college. I thought i'd bring it back from the dead so do speak.

Anytime!

I tested Signcut X2 directly from illustrator and it works. It works just like Cutstudio does for Roland so if anyone was considering buying a US Cutter and want to use Ai exclusively, i highly recommend Signcut X2. In X2, once you ahve installed it and teh plug in for AI, just go to File, Cut, then boom, you are in Cutstudio X2 and hit the cut button. It is very simple.

Got an Ebay 16x24 clammy and am impatiently waiting it's arrival. I wish i could afford a Mighty Press but at this time, it was the right price. I will do a review on tis and see what it has to offer. Anyway, tshirts, here i come~!

Ok..after speaking with the sender, i agreed to test out the press to see if it worked. After about 4 tries, i think i got the hang of it so i think i will be OK with the 'lil ding. Something like this would just be too much trouble especially if shipping it is half the cost of it. So...i guess it is a happy ending after all.

NP..ill add a helmet to them.

Ok..my press is finally here. It took teh sender from eBay over 3 weeks to send it and he had to send it in 2 parts because of teh weight issue, etc. I mean,..i did pay $99 for him to ship it. But once both parts were here, to my disappointment, it was claimed as BRAND NEW, but with what it looks, it is used and damaged. The heating element has a dent on it, and with the way it was packed there was no way it would have been damaged unless it was already damaged when he sent it to me. See pic 1. Now, the funny part. He claimed it was boxed and brand new, but there is dust in the little crevices of the machine and the bottom frame looks like it was repainted because it did not match the paint on the rest of the machine and looked like it was painted over rust. PIC 1 The bottom part looked like it was spray painted over and didn't even hide the fact that it was painted outside with DIRT still on the bottom. See pic 2. http://i116.photobucket.com/albums/o4/zerogravity44/BottomHeatpress.jpg[/img] So my question is...am i paranoid? I have never received and item in this condition that was labeled brand new. I have read negatives on a press being damaged when received, i am almost wondering if this was the same thing. What you all think i should do? Just a tad Pissed. Charlie
