    It's a life changing ordeal for sure. It seems like yesterday we brought our daughter home. She graduates high school in less than two months. Take lots of pictures along the way and enjoy the experience. Congrats!

    First Attempt at Blasting Glass

    Thanks, folks I blasted a jar last evening using some off-brand vinyl. It worked well, but the vinyl was noticeably thinner when I finished. This really is addicting...

    First Attempt at Blasting Glass

    PatrickR posted a topic in Show your work

    I volunteer as a high school archery coach and it was time for senior night. We needed something to present to our graduating archers. I found these 7.75" glass trivets at the dollar store (for $1) and decided to give them a try as a plaque. I used 8 mil sandblast vinyl cut on my Graphtec and placed the stencil on the textured side of the glass. Blast media was 80 grit aluminum oxide from Tractor Supply shot at 60psi.

    clip art and tracing

    PatrickR replied to bethann's topic in GraphTec Cutting Plotter Discussion

    Graphtec Studio is all I use with my CE-6000. The problem you're trying to solve is an easy fix. When you choose the Trace tool, you'll see you have 3 options in the Apply Trace Method window. You should be choosing the Trace Outer Edge option. When you get the trace that you want, select the object and do a Save to Library to keep it for future use. I have a library full of tracings that I've done with this program.

    First, press the decal to the transfer paper with a some force to help adhesion. Then lay the decal face-down and peel the transfer paper back flat against itself.
