very nice!

You probably already thought of this but you might want to carve a few pumpkins and light them with your various colored led's. They would look pretty cool at an evening booth. (I still need to hit you up for some of those)

I took this advise from goose and other members when I was making my initial purchases and I'm glad I did because unlike all of my other hobbies (boating, shooting, RC's, drinking, etc) this one puts money IN the bank. Moving forward I can only see it growing as I learn. Had I purchased a value cutter I would eventually want to either unload it at a big loss or keep it as a backup and buy a Graphtec or similar.
That being said many survive for years on a value cutter. Only you know how far your budget will spread.

Is there any disaster relief in place? What about insurance? Are they covering any of the loss?
-
You might want to read up on the flexi license agreement. I believe you may have the right to resell it but you and the buyer will need to contact SAI to transfer the agreement.

Is she able to make one that will also cover the media rack on a Graphtec CE6000-60? Do you have any current pics?

Sorry to hear about this BAM. I wish you and your community all the best. Is the government helping out in any way?

I use my big squeegee exactly like pshawny and it works great. I do tape the leading edge of the vinyl to my cutting mat and pull the app tape 4-5 inches past that to maintain space between the tape and vinyl.
-
-jonvince, if I remember correctly it's better to have the tape closer to the table. Nice functional design but you might want to drop it about three inches.

Trade outs are great! I've received a few cases of brew for next to nothing.

I like the price. If he's a friend or wants more work in the near future I might cut it down a bit.
I don't know about the rest of you but I wouldn't want it in my shop even if my name was Hart.
NO offense if it's your design DNA!

All done! Followed the center line and everything looks great but I have to admit I wasn't sure it would when I was laying it out. My OCD just about killed me. Guess I'm too dang picky.
One more lesson learned. Hopefully I can retain the info long enough to complete truck #2 tomorrow. Thanks again guys!

I have that ordway tapemate. It's all I know so nothing to compare it to. I used poster shipping tubes from office max and cut to 26". They are thin wall (maybe .060) which is fine but the rear tube fits so tight that it split the tube ends when I installed it. The front one fits loose and rolls nice but the back stays put. I guess it's designed that way to keep the tape roll from moving until you want it to??
I'd like to find some thicker wall paper core tubes and see if it improves at all. Otherwise I'll look for another unit altogether.
-
That is the line I originally used and it looked best but not perfect. I will lay everything out again tonight and see how it looks. Thanks guys!

Every time I do one of those I measure up from the center body line. No complaints yet.</p></blockquote>
What are you considering the center body line?
-
The body lines on a 98 chevy are not parallel and my decals appear crooked. The body lines run further apart as you go towards the rear. If I follow the top line it appears to rise in the rear. Follow the bottom line and it appears to drop in the rear. I taped them on the truck in both positions but my eye said "they are crooked dummy". It was late so I walked away and this morning I had a thought...
When laying down fairly large decals (mostly lettering) between the body lines; would it be best to locate the center in the front and rear of the vehicle, connect the two points and center the decals on that line?
For reference:

Awesome!! Halloween is one of my favorite as well. I need to start working on my collection.
-
Anyone else able to make sense of this? I know the NOOB is pouring off of me here!! I simply want to purchase a vector, cut the decal and place it on a business sign.
-
Poor site indeed. I wouldn't have known they sold coro if you didn't mention it. How many other products are not listed on their site?
-

Thanks guys! It's just not as clear as it is on other sites. The logo use does get tricky as well. Recreating something similar would be ideal but I'm not sure I am capable. I'll sleep on it.....

"You can use it. Just not share or sell it in any way"
The file? or the products produced using the file?

Anyone familiar with pond5 ? I can't seem to make heads or tails of their licensing policies and my rights?
Basically I want to purchase a vector for use on a mechanics sign but I can't seem to locate the license info be certain I can legally do so. Most other sites have "standard" or "expanded" license options right at checkout.
If anyone knows or has a spare minute to check it out and help clarify I would really appreciate it. This image is not available anywhere else at a price I can afford. (15x the price)
Here is a link to a different image:
