Okay, so I bought a MH Series 871 Cutter a few months back, and it's been working great up until now. Going into this I had absolutley NO idea how to cut vinyl, transfer, etc. I have learned A LOT. We have used this thing for all sorts of Car Decals and Misc. Signage. Just today the cutter stopped working. It will not power up. I am looking into the problem and possible resolutions, however I am thinking it may be time for an upgrade anyways. I would like to be able to make multicolor vinyls to stick on our vehicles and signage, as well as create our own T-Shirts. Naturally I am completely unknowledgable as to how to do either of these. I figured I would post on here and get some opinions before trying to figure it all out by myself again.
Now here is my question: Which vinyl cutter should we look at when trying to make a Decal identical to this.
Also, what is the cheapest method of putting that same logo on a T-Shirt?
We are looking to do this for our own company needs, no so much mass producing or anything. So we don't necessarily need a huge workhorse. Any input is greatly appreciated, be gentle.
