Dakotagrafx, Im not sure exactly what you are trying to prove. You have made your point...let's move on. In one of my other "spam" posts you replied "sorry to be grumpy - maybe just too busy right now." yet you have time/desire/energy to look through my previous post. Being that you are an advanced member....where I am a wee newbie...I'm sure that you are aware if you click on someone's name you can send them a direct message...I have also contacted USCutter when I had a troubleshooting question. When I was first trying to decide which machine to buy someone from the forum (that I will allow to remain annom. since you for whatever reason are so invested in my post(s) ) was very kind and helpful to me...and gave me some advice and pointers. Just because you didn't see it on the actual forum, doesn't mean that it didn't happen. Thanks for your concern, but I have been able to fix my problem. I am very thankful to you and everyone else that gave suggestions. I hope your day gets better and your schedule eases up a bit...or whatever it takes for you to not be so "grumpy" (your words, not mine) Again, I didn't realize that me asking in 3 places would be such an issue. I now completely understand...and rest assured....asking a question in the forum will be my last option from now on. And if I do in deed have another question arise that I must ask...I promise I will only ask once. Can this please be left alone now...

Thanks for your help!

I wasn't trying to "spam" it everywhere. I had a question about 2 months ago, and it was suggested to me to post it in more than one place (If it fit under that category) so that more people would see it and possibly be willing to help. If I offended you, or anyone else, that was not my intent. Yes, I'm a Newbie...and still have a lot to learn...but, I didn't realize that was a problem. Seeing that you commented on each of the 3 threads suggesting otherwise - I now see that it may be aggravating to someone trying to help others on the forum....with that said,..sometimes cutting a newbie some slack would be appreciated... Thanks for the help to everyone that has replied (to any of my 3 spam posts)

I posted the question in more than one area, because last time I had a question - I posted it in one place and it was suggested to me to post it in more than one. (because it would lead to more people seeing it and possibly being able to get help faster) I was suggested that on this site - therefore, I didn't realize it would a problem or offend you as much as it apparently did...since you had to comment on each post. But, none the less, thanks

I will start off by saying I haven't had my vinyl machine but a month or so - and I'm having to teach my self how to use it as I go... I'm trying to make some car decals for a ball team. I am having more trouble with this than I anticipated - and i'm probably making things more difficult that necessary. I have attached a sample of the type of decal I'm trying to make... They just want a white oval with "DRAW" centered in the middle and Bad Draw smaller, along a black oval outline (smaller than the white oval) I feel like this should be fairly simple to make...but I must be over complicating things. I made the white oval, but I'm having trouble getting the smaller outline of an oval in black to be exactly proportionate. And I understand that it will have to be 2 cuts for the black oval (one on each side of the outline) but I am not exactly sure how to go about making them. (I was able to figure out how to make "Bad Draw" follow a path to curve in the direction of the oval) Also, Would you suggest making the white oval with nothing cut out of it and then just adding the black vinyl over it after that has been cut, or would you suggest cutting out all of the images out of the white so that I can fit the two colors together. I hope this wasn't too confusing - I'm very appreciative of any help/advice Thanks in Advance!

I bought the Laserpoint ll a couple of months ago, but have had a lot going on and haven't used it yet. I'm about to buy a new computer just for the LaserPoint ll. I just wanted to double check and make sure that Sure Cuts A Lot Pro is compatible with Windows 8 before I buy a computer. Thanks in Advance.

I am new to this... I am trying to decide which machine to buy. I have narrowed it down to the 34" SC series or 25" LaserPoint ll I don't expect have many things to make larger than 24" but would like the option of making larger if I needed to. Is it worth it to buy a larger machine vs having to tile cuts Also - Since I'm new to this I dont know for sure if I will have a lot of contour cutting that I need to do. Does the SC series do everything the LaserPoint does except the contour cutting? I intend to use the machine for making decals for personalizing things that I make such as plaques, picture frames, mirrors, license plates, and decals for cars and walls. Thanks for any input...

Ok. Thanks for your response! Would you recommend buying a package with supplies from USCutter (I have seen them on their site as well as, ebay and amazon) Or should I purchase them separately. Possibly from other places?

Hello. I have been researching different vinyl cutters for over a month now and still have no clue which one I should get. I have found that there are good and bad reviews on basically every company and every machine. Im trying to keep the price at $600 or less. I make (and sell) wreaths, signs, decorations, etc..As my business is growing I now have a higher need for a vinyl machine. I want a machine so that I can do my own customizing instead of having to get someone else to cut my stickers (Of names, quotes, etc) My husband is a sports coach, so I was hoping to also be able to make things such as magnets, decals, signs for his team Basically, I would mainly use the machine for smaller objects (20" or less), but I want to have the capability of making something larger (48" or so)if possible Another question I have is - (I hope this makes sense) Does a larger machine do just as well with smaller projects as the smaller machine. For example, would a 12" decal look the same if cut with a 54" cutter vs a 28" cutter? Would the lines/curves be as sharp? Any advice is welcomed! Thanks in advance!!
