Superdak 2 Posted April 30, 2011 Got some funds available.... looking at buying a new cutter, but can't decide between the Roland GX-24 and graphtec ce5000. Both look like extremely nice machines. Kinda leaning towards the Graphtec because of it's higher downforce rate, but it seems like the roland's software seems to have a better rep. Kinda a big jump from the MH-721 I currently own, but I'm ready for it. So any input from you guys?? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
