louis clarke ii 202 Posted May 24, 2012 I just got a Roland GX24. Can I cut a 20ft flame with good tracking results. I tried using a lower end cutter with bad results. If so it will be about 12in wide can I use 15in vinyl. Any suggestions? I was thinking about three separate pieces. They will be going on a boat. Thanks, Louis Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
MZ SKEETER 4,709 Posted May 24, 2012 LOL,, If for that amount of money , it doesn't cut 20ft straight,, perfect. I would get my money back and purchase a Graphtec. LOL I know my Graphtec will cut it perfect. Can't you pre feed your vinyl? You can see how it tracks when you do that. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Going on a friends ski boat. Bye the way I LOVE my new cutter. Got it from US Cutter Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Jay2703 704 Posted May 24, 2012 I would think you could do that on 15" vinyl. I could on my GCC with no problems. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I must have had the paper inaccurately aligned. It fouled the last two of twenty feet. I had a LOT of waste. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
louis clarke ii 202 Posted May 25, 2012 I guess it was my error in the set up. Making decals is a side effect of another project. I had NO intention of doing this. Funny this is kind of a hobby for me that has turned into profit making venture. Thanks for the help. My buddy brought his boat over and we laid the vinyl. He was pleasantly pleased as was I.

Looks great. When I set the vinyl on the rollers, I hold the roll and pull it snug before I put the pinch rollers down. Then I take it offline and roll it out a distance to make sure it is tracking straight before cutting. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
