charlie_b CFXPaintworks 1 Posted December 12, 2008 Did a quickie for a buddy. We call him Bad Santa because he looks like the skinny evil twin of Santa. He races RC Cars with us so the back was another funny with him stepping on one.. I used my USCUTTER Laserpoint "simple countur cut" feature to cut out the graphic done in both Adobe Illustrator and Photoshop. Pressed with my Stahl's 16x20 Mighty Press. Enjoy.

tory 0 Posted December 12, 2008 Charlie, is "laserpoint" what is needed to read the spots on the transfer paper so it cuts out the outline? If so I still haven't used that feature yet. There is sooo much to learn and never enough time. I saw that transfer paper at a show and it was pretty cool to see how it worked. But until I have someone ask for it I guess that will be something I have to put on the backburner. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Posted December 12, 2008 The laserpoint is the exact same as the pcut except is has a laser attached to the blade holder. You use this laser to line your blade up with printed registration marks so your cutter knows where the printed decal is. Most other machines that contour cut use an optical eye to line up with the reg marks. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
