Hello everyone just purchased a uscutter sc34" last week and got it up and running and have been reading and learning all i can about the buisness. i have been happy with the cut quality just trying to figure out how to cu detail with out loosing small pieces.

also where do you all buy sign materials like the metal/composit board that you use for signs?

thanks, chris

Congrats and Welcome Chris! Lots of good people and good information here.

It really depends on what part of the country you live in, you're best to find a local supplier (to save freight and convience), and/or find one at least close to your part of the country, because freight sometimes can be pricey depending on what it is.

Good Luck! Alan

Hello to you.

Consider opening an account with Grimco.

As for the SC, make sure your blade is really really deep into the blade holder, and only peeks out the slightest amount. In fact, you may not even be able to see it extending beyond the end with the naked eye.

I got a SC 34" a few weeks ago and it has worked very well for the projects I needed it to. Yes the blade barely has to be out. I have been pulling the blade back more and more and using less and less pressure.

welcome! Scott

Hello and welcome . Do a web search for sign supply dealers closest to your location most suppliers handle the composite metal in one brand or another. The ones I use are a good distance from me but deliver in our area every week at reasonable rates .
