  1. Use the USB port,Its the best.. I have the titan 2 28" .. And you dont need another ground on that cutter. Sounds like you bought a used unit? Since you had to buy a new motherboard? If it was used, there could of been issues before with it from previous owner if true..or you are the original owner and warranty ran out.

     

    For the usb port issue. Sounds like a bad connection. I thought mine was acting up once and it was the cable. What length of cable are you running to your Pc etc?

    So I went and got a pair of needle point tweezers, but they didn't work.  So I took my sharpening stones for my knives and went to town on making those bad boys fine and sharp.  The result was a pair of tactical weeding tweezers 

    you can also use the back end of a bic pen with a small piece of double sided tape on it .that you just dab the stars out with , if you understand what im saying..

    Or the weeding tool for HTV that has a really nice hook style on it ,grabs really good. Siser Weeder Pick Tool  from uscutter.

  3. No problem bud.What you can do is get one and scan it on a printer as color and then you have a image for tracing etc. Or you can scan it as high res and send me the image and i can go from that as starters. You can also try vector magic as well. Which i prefer to use over scalps trace program,I havent taken the time to learn the trace in scalps yet lol... But i really like vector magics outcome a lot.

    Hey y'all, got a hands on project coming up for a group of guys and gals with Down Syndrome (my little guys both have DS too).  Fidget spinners are all the rage at our local advocacy and training center so, hands on wrapping is what we will be doing.  I suck at design so any help for the standard 3 sided spinners would help 

     

    thanks

    If you can get me a photo of one that your going to use and the measurements i will see what i can do to help, but you will need to do some leg work first.

    Totatally new subject, but same newbie ignorance...any reason I shouldn't remove the media basket?  I could use the room and I really don't see it's use for me/

    My opinion would be ,the catch basket will limit the amount of foreign debris that could get on the vinyl from static build-up .Keeping it on the floor etc just seems  common sense. And im not sure if by having it make contact with any other surface could cause static problems but im not sure..

    first thing I bet you are missing is never have the plotter pull it off the roll, prefeed what you need for the job so it doesn't pull off of the roll

     

    I thought the same thing when i first read it . 

    @steved13 always pull off what you need for the job your working on. The roll should never be a weight when the material is being cut..Then cut off  when its finished.
