  1. Good Morning .. ;D

      I'm using SignCut Pro for cutting with my CoPam 2500.  I just purchased/installed WinPCSIGN for working with Rhinestone designs/cutting templates.  I was able to cut from WinPcSign fine.  When I went back to SignCut the com 6 was gone.  Will I have to install the driver everytime I switch from the different software programs?

    Also, I read a thread earlier about contour cutting with CoPam and wondered if anyone found a trick.  I'd like to figure something out for that as well.

    Thanks for your time.


  2. Question.... If you were buying a sublimation printer would you choose Epson 1100 or 1400/why?  I read a blog the other day (TShirt Forum) that Epson printers were changing the circuit boards making it more difficult to use ink other than their own?:)??

    Also, what is the name of transfer paper that is like vinyl (this is for heat pressing) 3G opaque paper?:)

    Also, what type of vinyl is recommended for printing (not for heat pressing)

    I'm done THANK YOU :);):)  Sorry so many questions. 

    This little hobby is costing me a fortune; but at least I'm having fun....  Nothing like spending your kids inheiritance. LOL


  3. Hello All,

    I've already received some wonderful help from several of you and appreciate that beyond means.

    I'm Nancy from St. Louis MO.  I bought a Cricut back in November of 2009 to make vinyl signs for my den/work area and became frustrated with the time it took to cut something out and the size limitations; could only cut 12x24.  I started searching different sites and before you know it I became the proud owner of my own plotter; Copam 24.  Now I'm making signs for friends and coworkers at the speed of light; also going through lots of vinyl due to errors.  But you have to learn somewhere and I learn something everyday.

    I did, just today, buy a heat presser figured if I was going to cut might as well go for the gusto.  I'd also like to get into sublimation.  Soon I hope to have a website; but that will take SOMETIME.

    Again I want to thank everyone for all their help.  This is a great forum for information.

    Nice meeting everyone.  Have a great day and happy cutting.


  4. Thanks again everyone...  I need to make my decision by tomorrow so I can get it here and practice.  Already having people requesting t-shirts.  I got my 24" CoPam about 2months ago and haven't stopped using it ... It works great for me. 

    It sure is nice to have this forum; everyone is so helpful and nice.


  5. I need your advice.  I'm new to heat pressing and ready to buy my press.  If you had an option between Max Heat Press or SunIE which would you choose?

    Also, I'm wanting to eventually get the mug press, I'm not anticipating using it that much.  Would the SunIE mug press be a good choice or should I save a few more bucks and buy a better brand.

    Thanks for your input. :rolleyes::)


  6. On this sign I was using Century Gothic; I finally got to work.  What I did was pulled the SVG file into Inkscape from a program I use called Make the Cut.  I then filled the letter "l" which was my problem child for this sign and filled it in with the paint bucket.  I then saved as an EPS file and it pulled up through SignCut.  It cut fine. 

    As dumb as this sounds what is SB? LOL  I'm a real newbie but learning everyday and enjoying every moment.

    Thanks
