    Thanks Fred, I guess that if you are in Canada (with them being on metric time) you have to turn your clock back another hour....... wayne k guam usa

  4. REALLY getting tired....... Nodes are eating up my time !

    With your path selected just hit the "no fill" icon over in the color swatches pallet (the square with the X in the middle). You need to study up on your tools a little - we are getting into basic stuff now. wayne k guam usa
  5. REALLY getting tired....... Nodes are eating up my time !

    The "offset" setting determines how far the contour is placed in or outside of the original path. Once it is set you break apart the contour so you can use just the inner path as the cut line. wayne k guam usa
  6. New Computers! Anyone have any preferred vendors?

    How about one of these: https://www.apple.com/mac-pro/ A little pricey but looks like it could do double duty as a spittoon or ashtray. wayne k guam usa
  7. Fun series of signs

    Very nice stuff. Your unique style really shows through in these. How big of a staff do you have to tackle a big project like this? Thanks for another peek into your shop. wayne k guam usa
  8. REALLY getting tired....... Nodes are eating up my time !

    I use X5 but it should be on the left in the "toolbox" tool bar. Look for the icon that looks like a square pile of dog poop. wayne k guam usa
  9. Strange cutting blade

    What year was that airsoft order? I think prior to 2012 airsoft guns and pop tarts shaped like guns were illegal in Canada. Maybe the Mounties got his gun...... wayne k guam usa
  10. REALLY getting tired....... Nodes are eating up my time !

    Use the contour tool on your power clipping path(s) and set it for inside contour - single step with the amount you want to go into the graphic .3 The new inside path is the one you want flexi to use as the contour cut path Break apart the contour (ctrl k). Get rid of the original path if it...
  11. REALLY getting tired....... Nodes are eating up my time !

    Flexi probably has them hidden in some secret clipping mask. Try this In Corel select all your power clips - copy and paste them to a new layer extract all the contents from the powerclips on the new layer and delete them (the contents not the power clipping paths) Select the empty paths and...
  12. REALLY getting tired....... Nodes are eating up my time !

    What Pat said. How are you generating your cut path in Corel? If you are using auto trace then the node overkill would be happening in Draw and not an issue with export - import. Maybe some screen caps or a cropped sample of the file(s) you are working with will help us see the problem...
  13. I need opinions about Flexi Sign and Adobe Illustrator...

    +1 We use Flexi, Corel & Illustrator You can get by without AI/PS but if you plan on working with other people's files you will save countless hours by gritting your teeth & joining the Adobe herd. Last week I received the work files for a wrap on a little Scion 2dr. Each panel was between...
  14. REALLY getting tired....... Nodes are eating up my time !

    If you are designing in CorelDraw why are you exporting to PSD? You should be exporting to eps, ai or pdf. The side trip to photoshop should not be needed. You should be able to set up your contour cut in Draw and then in Flexi select the path and use the "Make Contour Cut" command under the...
  15. Stepper motor for a PC 60?

    Anyone know where to find one? I have a pc 60 we use as a backup cutter for simple lettering (DOT etc.) and it finally died. Been on line to ebay & craig's list but have not been able to track one down. Sent an email to cammtech.com a while back seeing if they would sell just the part but...
  16. name to type of design (tattoo)

    Maybe start another thread on the merits & pitfalls of tattoos so as to not derail this one. I'm interested in what sign people think about permanent branding...... wayne k guam usa
  17. Arizona law and signmakers

    It's all done now you can't legally pray away the gay any more in Az. Maybe they can get back to working on the security problems with the border. wayne k guam usa
  18. Interviewed on Fox Business today-

    Nice work. You came across very well. The Fox production guys seemed to be lagging a little getting the right cards up at the right times. So is she as good looking in person as she is on camera? wayne k guam usa
