top53 53 Posted December 5, 2011 Hey everyone I just bought my first cutter a Graphtec Craft ROBO Pro CE5000-40 used off craigslist. I was bidding on a Copam that did not pan out. Give me your opinion of this cutter for a beginner. Oh I paid $300 that leaves me $200 for some cutting material. Yee haa . Thanks dakotagrafx, Skeeter and Rodger for your advice. Wish it had a larger carriage, but this will have do starting out. Now let the learning begin!!!! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

vinylmotivations 143 Posted December 6, 2011 At that price the Graphtec CRP is a FANTASTIC deal... would scrape up the money for one if I found it THAT cheap. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
top53 53 Posted December 7, 2011 I really wanted the 24 inch, but at this price I really could not turn it down. This will give me a chance to learn, and maybe move up to a bigger machine later. Can't wait for my vinyl to come in got some sample material comming in for free.Thanks to CyberChuck for the heads up from 3m. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
