  1. Shop logo attempt

    I always value constructive criticism and I've been around these forums enough to know that you can't let the comments become personal. I have written down each of the books that were mentioned by everyone and I will be looking into them. Of course I'm a noob in all of this but I'm also like a...
  2. Shop logo attempt

    Thank you for the information on the book. I will most definitely look at it.

    Deleted. Didn't use it before and won't be using it again!
  4. Cast Vinyl with easy release ability

    Yes, I believe that I was cutting too deep. The paper was sticking to the back of my vinyl when I used a squeegee. I believe that has been taken care of now and it seems to have helped a lot. Another factor is that I am re-using the application tape because I have been using a speed press...
  5. Shop logo attempt

    Looking at my attempt makes me laugh at myself and reminds me to no post after midnight when I'm tired. LOL ABCO is who you are so I would make sure that my name is what I want people to focus on. I just felt that it need depth and colors that caught your eye. It was a 5 minute example to...
  6. Shop logo attempt

    More color You need more dimension and color to your logo. I know this isn't going to be good buy the standards of many on this forum but at least it gets your attention more than the original. Let the trashing begin!
  7. Cast Vinyl with easy release ability

    It's a brand new cutter so I doubt that it is the cutting strip. I decreased the depth of the blade and it just leaves a barely visible mark now. Not sure I want to go any lower in depth or I'll start having problems with weeding. This seems to have helped a little especially when I use a...
  8. Cast Vinyl with easy release ability

    I will lower the pressure and try that. The bade barely scores the backing but it can't hurt to try.
  9. Cast Vinyl with easy release ability

    I have been using Oracal 651 and 751 Cast vinyl . They both have a 84# release liner. I have been using main tape preview plus GXF 100 as my application tape. Problem that I am having is that small detail in my vinyl does not want to release from the liner. Even when using a squeege and...

  11. NGlantz or USCutter

    You guys have been Great! Thanks everyone for your help! It's nice to know that people still care and are willing to help.
  12. NGlantz or USCutter

    Price I've noticed that NGlantz has a little higher price on their vinyl but that doesn't concern me too much. I am more interested in quality of product. I once ordered from USCutter and they sent me some vinyl from the end of a roll and it tunneled badly. They were very receptive when I...
  13. NGlantz or USCutter

    Does anyone have any experience ordering vinyl from either NGlantz or USCutter? Prices for Oracal 751 are actually cheeper from USCutter but I'd like to know if I should consider NGlantz from a quality or service perspective.
  14. Basic Vinyl Cutter suggestions

    Graphtec CE6000-40 Stay away from the Roland. They are great but if you really need something that will cut with a lot of detail, then I suggest the 15" Graphtec. You won't be disappointed.
  15. Clear Application/Transfer Tape

    I appreciate that information. I am a little concerned that the low tack won't stick to Oracal 751 or even 651 but I may just look for a Medium Tack instead.
  16. Clear Application/Transfer Tape

    I'm looking for a reusable clear Application/Transfer film. I am making my own speedpress and I am wondering if anyone has any recommendations since I can not buy the Application tape from SpeedPress without having first bought one of their devices. I found a product called Exac-Tac but their...

    Affinity Designer Has anyone tried this Vector Design software with their cutter yet? Affinity Designer Please let me know if you have any luck importing your designs into your cutter software.
  19. Affinity Designer for Mac

    Expanding EPS files I'll have to go back and read the forums on this one because I have not found an easy way of doing it other then doing the following. Double click on the embedded file to edit it, select all curves (CMD-A), copy (CMD-C) then and go back to my main document to past(CMD-V)...
  20. Affinity Designer for Mac

    It is amazing I agree with everything that you said brycesteiner. When you read the forums, you can clearly see how people on Windows want it ported over. This tells me that even the Windows users see its potential(Don't get me wrong, I've been in the IT business for 30 years). Serif has no...
