hi, i´m not an inventor, i just like my plotter to become a perfect machine for my needs. i wonder why someone prefer buying a new machine, rather than upgrade the older loved one. i like this one: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jK5WyQa6PoQ

hi I thought something like this, but for cutting plotters like summa, not table plotters. this video is from 2010, there must be a lot of interesting things since then. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PW4Ft8C8xq4

hi, wondering if anyone convert his/her cutting plotter to led laser cutter, especially for thick rubber vinyl. i know it´s a dangerous to play with a strong laser, but isn´t it a bit easier to turn your machine into cutting beast, rather than buy a new machine? thanks for passing by.

thanks for reply. i know , that every photo is unique ( dpi resolution and so on), but i don´t have any sample right now. i´d like to make a few versions in advance, and then choose the best one. best of luck!

hi, i can´t decide it what half tone / engraver effect is the best , so i´d like to ask your opinion. clear vector is okey, but photo images are more delicate. it´s for screen printing and uv sandblasting i use Coreldraw and Photoshop. any tips and suggestions will be very appreciated! Thanks!

hi, i have forgotten to mentioned the reason to get in touch with wincut. i´d like to often cut vector design bigger than cutting area, and never had problem in wincut, but winplot refuses to do it. sometimes is vinyl not wide enough ( eg.just a few millimetres smaller from each side ) it´s...

h, wondering if anyone own this cool "antique" app for win x64 i´ve wincut version 3.0.2.1 for x86, but i wasn´t successful with an installation. my pc runs under win 7 ultimate x 64. any tips how to fix it? i usually use winplot, but wincut has been my favorite for years :-) i´d be grateful for...

thank you guys for tips and a short presentation of your proud machines:-) what is your favorite material for sandblasting wood and stone? ( rubber vinyl+ blasting media ) do not hesitate to share your opinion , pics or experience of your golden hands:-) i think, sandblasting is a very...

hi, i´d like to know more about cutting plotters for rubber stencils for sandblasting ( wood -stone ) we´ve summa d60, but it seems pretty week to cut such a thick vinyl foil as rubber mask ( correct me, if i´m wrong:-) what about this a small hobby one for the start? :-)...

hi, you´re right too, but i just want to make it a private space from outside ( just simple in this case ) otherwise some interesting patterns would be cool too http://www.sign-maker.net/gifts/window-art.htm or funny version here...

hi, thanks for a great tip, sounds very promising:-) the gap should be in the middle window, right? best of luck!

today i ´ve worked with it, and it was a very nice experience. quickly and without bubbles:-) i´ve to think over... thanks!

you´re right, me too:-) but there is no other option, because one of the windows is 1368 x 1265mm ( 53.85 x 49.80in ), and vinyl is max. 1200mm anyway, thanks for reply.

hi, thanks for quick answer. i´ve choosen bubble free sand vinyl, which is max only 1215mm ( 47.835in ) , other ordinary vinyls are up to 1500mm ( 59.055in ) i was talking more about visual impression :-)

hi, i´d like to apply sand decal to window, but unfortunately the decal is not wide enough, so i have to do it with two pieces. i´m not sure, whether one should overlapped the other or not. it´s for outside balcony. i´g be grateful for any tips. thanks!

thanks to all you guys, it´s wonderful how many incredible people are around here, blessed with good heart and wisdom:-) merry christmas and happy new year!

hi, yes it does, it depends upon quality it´s very stubborn, DXF/DWG models from coreldraw are useless for further editing or plasma cutting. i´m sorry, i was very optimistic at the beginning too. later i thought, sketchup can be an option... anyway, any tips are appreciated. good luck

hi, thanks for your tips, but i´ve to dissapoint you both guys. DWG / DXF files you can find everywhere, but solidworks refuses them all. in other hand sketchup doesn´t save models in SolidWorks Files (*.sldprt, *.sldasm, *.slddrw) by the way, i´ve already got dxftools pro, but it hasn´t solved...
