hi everyone,
i´m a happy owner of summa D60, and looking for any tips about "Pounce Kits & Accessories", to create stencils for wall painting , even screen printing for my family and friends as well as cutting thick stencils for deep blasting or creating very detailed stencils for blasting by laser printer in combination with some type of U.V. Vellum, Laser Film that you can use in the laser printer to print out stencils without cutting.
your valuable suggestions or tips are appreciated
:thankyou:

Hard to understand your question...I bought a pounce kit for my cutter, not the same as yours. I have never used it. I think it is too hard on your machine. get a pounce wheel and do it by hand. You still have to hand cut your stencil...

Pounce wheel is much faster.. I have a pounce kit for my cutter,, it takes too long. .. I plot the letters on paper and them pounce it myself. then turn it over and sand the back side. much better results.

hi,
thanks for your tips.
i´ve put all my questions together, so it may sound strange:)
first of all, i´m interested in making stencils many different ways,
by my cutting plotter, HP laser printer and so on.
therefore, any different idea how to do it is wonderful. :)

I'm still not understanding. If you can cut out a stencil on your cutter, then you don't need a pounce pattern. A pounce pattern only makes a dotted line of holes along your line, then you transfer your pattern by chalking it with a pounce bag/box, then you must draw, paint or cut by hand.

okey,
how would you create a stencil for eg. 3 meters long paint lettering on the wall?
you cut destroy a few meters of vinyl, or to create a cheap stencil from the paper
as you said.
what is better???

I would definitely use a pounce pattern, but it's not called a stencil. That's where you kept throwing me off. And still I would draw out your design with your cutter using the pen on butcher paper, then pounce by hand with a pounce wheel. Then transfer your pattern to the wall .
