  1. ***update installed a serial card in another comp, after screwing around with the settings got it to cut great, the same file that I couldn't cut last time cut perfect. I did however move the plotter around a bit and also put the vinyl on the rollers as opposed to the floor like last time. Thanks for the help @Dakotagrafx

    Used HIX 400

    Olde worlde charm @mfatty500
  3. Thanks man, Just tried to print the same thing on a shorter (not touching the floor) piece of vinyl, it cut better but still not 100%
  4. Ah ok, they're all metal too. The vinyl I used when the plotter went west was trailing on the floor if that makes any difference,
  5. Looks like no, they're all metal, and the ones that the are attached to the stand are all metal too

    Thanks, this poor girl looks like she's been ridden hard and put away wet! Are there any issues pressing with a damaged pad?
  8. So, I moved some cabling around as someone had success trying that. Put in the pen attachment and it worked great. Swapped the pen for the blade and the same issue came back grrrrrrrr I'm thinking it must be something to do with the static issue, stumped as to what to do next...

    MH Series to CE6000-60 Overkill for a hobby?

    Am I a cheap ba***rd? Had the Graphtec added to my cart, went to check check out and they want $44.99 to ship, has amazon spoiled me so bad that I have to have free shipping especially when I'm spending $1800?

    I sorta feel like if I compromise and get something that I'll 'just make do' with then I'll always think I should have dropped the $ and got what I really wanted. I dunno, I talk myself in and out of this 5-10 times every day!

    Decal - Vinyl Cutting Advice

    In the below example would I be better layering the white on top of the red or the red on top of the white? Sorry if this is a rudimentary question but I'm struggling coming up with pro's/cons of either. Thanks
  19. I'm no SEO expert but that filename looks like some major keyword stuffing
  20. It's got about 60 hours on it, is this a good deal? I have the MH for bigger projects but I like the idea of having a smaller on for decals etc Thanks

    Vehicle Signage Do's and Don't

    So, follow up question. If I go ahead and put some lettering on the truck and decide I don't like it, how difficult is it to take off? Is there some special goo gone type spray? Thanks
