Contour cutting with Pcut

Recommended Posts

I saw some where a while ago that there is a way to convert or add a laser to the pcut. I'm thinking of trying to find a laser that will fit in the forward most blade holder. anyone done this?

Yes,

I modified a ZUND cutting machine.

You have to find a laser pointer that has a laser spot of around 1 mm diameter when it hits the vinyl.

If the laser beam is to strong the light will disintegrate if you are watching it.

If you have a real Pcut, USCUTTER was selling some carriage arms that was equipped with the original laser pointer.

Price was 25 $.

You can ask them if they still stock.

For that price I would not take the hassle to make it yourself.

Do you know which carriage arm this would be? Uscutter lists two styles under the pcut/laserpoint, type A and B.
