    EDDIE !!!

    Your project looks great! ;D Thanks for sharing your file - my son is a huge Iron Maiden fan, so I'll do something for him with this.

    Mistakes

    The other night I had my LP24 and stand laying on its side, while I drilled out the wellnuts in the bases to add some casters to the stand. When I went to stand the thing back up, the black part that runs along the top was seperated from the red ends. Worried that I had somehow broken my machine, I got the thing upright and realized that the black part was a LID on Hinges. DOH! It sure is a lot easier changing blades and pens now... I guess while I'm at it, I'll fess up to laying app tape on about 25 2-color decals I was layering late one night recently, (you guessed it) on the bottom layer first! Oh well, my screw-ups keep me in line...

    Mistakes

    I'm glad to find that I'm not the only one that was faked out by the lid on the LP. When I first got it my LP, I tried to pull up on the the black piece on top but it wouldn't budge - I figured it must be a structural piece and worked around it. For whatever reason, it opens and closes fine now...
  6. +1 I run mine with the blade barely visible, pressure @110g on calendered (651) - speed 12"/sec. This cutter should be able to cut accurately
  7. Unless you are counting the box the logo is in as part of the overall size, this graphic would be at 20" x 35" to remain proportional?

    Help Cutting Stencils

    When you are at the cutting screen in SBE uncheck the weeding options before sending to cutter - the box will disappear.

  10. I don't have experience with that particular unit, but I recently hooked up a Digi SP One to my Refine MH1351 and it works great! - Took about 5 minutes to assign a static IP, set the Digi SP One serial port to automatically follow the virtual PC port settings, install the Digi Realport (COM Re-director) software on my PCs, and start cutting again... From any PC in the shop, including my laptop which does not have a physical RS232 port! The Digi SP One is about $150.00 from CDW. The included Realport software creates a virtual COM port on your PC which you select in your cutting software and configure just like a regular COM port, and off you go. (the virtual COM port redirects the Cut Job over the network to the Digi) The bad news is that while there is hardware that will do what you want, you really need to be by the cutter when cutting. So, +4 on that aspect.

    I admit that I made a blanket stament about torrents, but I thinking of sites that illegally distribute materials. A lot of times you'll get more than you bargained for with your download.

    I had to snag both of those. Thanks for sharing!
  16. Thank you very much! :thumbsup:
  17. I only use 751 for vehicle graphics. My rationale is that the customer won't remember the money they saved using 651, but they'll remember who to try blaming when it goes bad!
