  1. Is there an Edge vinyl with strong adhesive?

    Using Oracal 651 now. The Perma-grip vinyl seems much stronger, but they apparently don't have it in clear. Any others that may work? Thanks, -Neil.

  3. How does my FX recognize how much foil is left on a spool?

    A friend recently gave me a bunch of partly-used Edge II foil cartridges and I experimented with unreeling one and re-reeling it onto an FX cartridge spool. It worked great, except that I did not recognize how much feet was left. On another note, I've put in spools that have 3+ yds left, but...

  4. Pricing?

    Posting here rather than the noob forum as I expect there will be differences for the Edge. I have been asked for and am doing a few side jobs for others with my FX and GSxPlus, and wondering what's fair pricing. So far, I've only charged double my material costs, and have not factored in for...

    Glue on tractor-feed pegs... why?

    I'm getting a lot of residual glue on my tractor-feed pegs, and I can probably understand why this would happen, but I can't understand why I get so much with just about 10 yds of vinyl. I also occasionally see some round vinyl cutouts suggesting that the vinyl did not have the holes completely...

  6. Separating (cutting the back of) decals?

    I want to cut some circular decals so that they're separated individually. I've seen gerber do these so they're cut from the back (after printing and cutting from the front), such that there's a small border of the backing material on the edge. My questions are... what is this process called...

  7. Is it possible to cut non sprocketed materials in a GSx+?

    I see that the home/hobby machines have mats that let them do this easily, so wondering if I can do this with my GSx+. This is the last piece I need to figure out for a custom part I need to make, and really don't feel like purchasing yet another machine just for this if the Gerber plotter can...

  8. How do I apply adhesive to Lexedge?

    For stuff like 3M 467MP or similar dual-sided pressure-sensitive adhesives, I'd doubt that I'd need a laminator. But what tool/machine is used to get it on smooth w/o any bubbles? Alternatively, are there any spray-type adhesives that can work? Or course then I'd need to know how to get a...

  9. Multi-layer laminating/cutting process?

    Hi all, I now officially have my own Edge FX and GSx+ for decals for electronics I make. As I'm not in the sign business, it gets minimally used (but the convenience of being able to make custom decals as I design/tinker is great), so I'm still experientially new to all this decal/graphics...
