Pistonpump 6 Posted September 25, 2008 Hi everyone, Just found this on the net...not sure if it has been posted or not so I appologize if its been listed before. video using the lp24 contour cutting... http://www.sc-x2.com/component/option,com_kb/Itemid,26/t,1/page,articles/articleid,22/ http://www.sc-x2.com/files/mov/SimpleContourcut/index.html It is the Sign Cut software not the Sign Blazer Elements software that came with the machine. It might help everyone who has had problems trying to contour cut. George Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
kenimes 42 Posted September 25, 2008 Yes, and they are also working on more videos and proceedures for contour cutting with SignCut and our LaserPoint, so, more to come!

Pistonpump 6 Posted September 29, 2008 After 2 days of playing with my new LP24 I have just did my first contour cut with signblazer elements. The quesiton I have is how do you get it to do a outline cut and Inline cut at the same time. Or is this just wishful thinking?...Thanks Geo Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

kenimes 42 Posted October 9, 2008 Here is a doc I created for assistance. I had the same problem when I was selecting the whole image AND the outline, and not just the outline when I went to turn the Cut Mask ON.

kenimes 42 Posted October 9, 2008 Well, can you just cut? Type some text, go to Cutter, then Cut, and Cut Tile- does it communicate this way? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
TTSF 0 Posted October 9, 2008 Yes. I can cut Vinyl very WELL!! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
kenimes 42 Posted October 9, 2008 Are you making sure that your laser is in front of and to the right of the right side reg. mark? If the origin is behind the reg marks, it will not jog the material back in the cutter. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
TTSF 0 Posted October 9, 2008 Im confused on what you mean...... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
TTSF 0 Posted October 10, 2008 I think I'm making progress!!!!! Its not fully perfect yet but it WORKS!!! Settings: Outline Offset: 0.00 Thickness: 0.20 I think I need to raise the thickness in the outline settings. As you can see on the T-Shirt & transfer paper, part of the ears and the left side face is missing........Any suggestions? By the way, I posted my first T-Shirts using the Vinyl Function as well as the Contour Function I did Today!!!!! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
