I guess it's my fault for not doing some investigation before spending hard earned money.

I use a 08 MacbookPro and an even older mini with CS5 and never noticed and lagging other than tracing a large multicolor design.
I also upgraded both to SSD hard drives and could not be happier.
Recently i've been using Microsoft Surface Pro to do everything. It's an amazing tablet... CS5, Corel Draw, iDesignR all work flawless.

very cool

looks nice.
might try to make the boat with outlines. reason is when someone wears a shirt like that or similar with a large solid piece of heat transfer it becomes a hot spot on the shirt. no air flow and tends to make a stick sweaty spot.
HTV is great but not for doing large solid designs, try to outline. my 2 pennies

I was going to suggest make sure you blade holder did not come loose… that happen to me one
Also making sure your pinch rollers are clean.
both of these would cause some poor cuts.. or worse

oh.. and a real sharp new blade
one class I took, we were told on certain material you may need to snap the blade off about every 6 feet to maintain a clean cut.

not sure about this, but if you pulled a piece of knifeless from side to side (the 84" width) and made sure its level you would have a nice straight clean cut across the top of the vinyl.
as for as the other sides, like kal259 said except no need to hinge. just take a piece of vinyl about 12" x 90" and slap is up wet.

great work

ok… I know there are Mac users but this section seems to have very few post.
So I wonder, are there lots of people using Mac and not having any problems or are there just not that many using a Mac?
Please humor me respond if you see this, just list basic setup.
Ill start right after I post this.

solve your problem… use vinyl with an air release adhesive:
Hexis all there HX products have this.
3M has Controltac
to name a few
that way if you handing them out you don't need to give heating instructions :-)

Just a follow up, even after a proper install now the Plotter is not recognized through USB 3.0
That really stinks because I was thinking of setting up my Surface Pro to run it as back but it only has USB 3.0
Come on Graphtec, if your aware of this please fix. Maybe there is a firmware upgrade. I will let you know if I come across one.

I have basically the same setup. I have cut a lot of reflective… the jeep with the digital circuit board for one if you have seen it.
When I get a chance I will post my exact setting and how i set my blade.
I have never heard of the credit card thing. I'm self taught so I may be doing it wrong but I've had no problems.
Also, my blades last a long time..

sorry mean to say nylon, not polyesterYou should have no problems. There is heat transfer material made for nylon.
I recently did some camera straps, poly though.
Try Thermo Flex Xtra

What screen press did you get ? Looking into this now.I picked up a used Hopkins 6 color 4 station. It needs some work to get all heads working but I've only been doing 1-3 color jobs so problems with that.
My experience is 90% of my jobs have been 1 color or 2 color… mainly because I do mostly sports apparel. So I would not discount a good 4 color with 4 station.
FYI
I'm going to post a 2 color R Jennings in the classified section.

It's the bench top model from HF. I took the advice from some of the guys here and applied silicon caulk to every seam both inside, outside, and bottom of the unit.I hooked up my shop vac to it and I didn't notice anything getting out. With a good shopvac hooked up I don't see how anything could get out as long as you keep negative pressure in the cabinet.
Thanks for prompt feedback.
When I get one, I'll make sure to do the same.
